Thank you for sharing your perspective with us. Our mission at First Command is incredibly important to our employees and Advisors. They tell us that one of the most compelling elements of this career is the opportunity to serve military personnel and their families in a meaningful way. At First Command, we maintain our strong culture and mission by attracting and retaining talented people. We focus on providing our employees with opportunities for professional growth, and we reward them through an attractive compensation and benefits program. We offer competitive pay determined by third-party studies of employers in our market area, which is supplemented with a generous benefits package. Another valuable financial benefit is our Employee Stock Ownership Program, which is available to all qualified employees and funded entirely by company contributions. You touched on our hybrid work environment. Our approach to hybrid reflects a meaningful balance of in-office experiences with work that can be done virtually. We know face-to-face interactions allow us to develop deeper relationships, pursue greater creativity and innovation, and are critical to maintaining our strong culture. We wish you well in your next endeavor.

Thank you for sharing your experience as a First Command Financial Advisor. We're excited to have you on the team taking care of our clients. For many of our early-career Advisors, the most valuable offering First Command can provide is the Fast Start program. This in-depth training experience provides intense professional development to prepare new people to serve our clients as independent Advisors. Some of the benefits of that program include paying new Advisors during the training period and offering a full array of employee benefits. Through the program, our Advisors learn how to build and grow their own business, serve new clients and provide face-to-face financial coaching. Our Advisors are eligible to earn a strong income through competitive industry commissions on sales of financial products, plus additional annual and deferred compensation. We are here to support you as you help those who serve in their pursuit of lifelong financial security. We appreciate your feedback and thank you for your commitment to our shared mission.
