Pros

Very good virtual support system among field offices. They also train you and sponsor licensing if you are motivated and interested in becoming a financial advisor. No cold calling involved!

Cons

Once licensed, you are on your own. You get a small pool of clients from the database but you have to go out and advertise yourself and company's services. I do not think it's really cons but it's worth mentioning!And get ready for loooong hours!

Thank you for your comments. I'm sorry to hear that you had a negative experience, and I will share your thoughts with our Leadership. I appreciate you calling out some of the pros of a career as a First Command Financial Advisor. One of our most valuable offerings is the Fast Start program, which provides intense professional development to prepare new people for success as Independent Advisors. Some of the benefit offerings of that program include paying new Advisors during the training period (first on an hourly basis, then salary) and offering a full array of employee benefits (medical, dental, life insurance, disability insurance, 401(k) and personal time off). We find that this program is an ideal way to prepare new people to become Independent Advisors and begin pursuing First Command’s Mission of “coaching those who serve in their pursuit of financial security.”
