We have the best clients - those that serve or have served! I can't think of a more rewarding job than helping these clients.
Cons
I don't think this is unique to First Command, but we have a lot of technology change happening at a rapid rate. Not really a con though.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a positive review and for your tenure with First Command. Coaching military personnel and their families in their pursuit of financial security is our mission and we love hearing from employees and Advisors about the pride they have in serving this community in a meaningful way. You mentioned the rapid change in our technology as we evolve to better serve our incredible military clients. This is one of a few major evolutions we'll need to navigate through in order to best execute our goals. Your leadership during this process will be critical.
Working in the Financial Services Industry for over 25 years First Command is unique in their mission and the client they serve. The company is embracing change and moving forward. Managment is very transparent, supportive in career growth and is willing to effectively deploy its resources.
Cons
Being a smaller organization, you may or may not have the brand name recognition of other larger financial service firms.

In all areas First Command represents an improvement from past employers. If anything, they may need to do a better job promoting Ft Worth as the great place it is to live.
