Pros

The company offers a flexible hybrid schedule with three days in the office and two days remote. Benefits are excellent, schedules are balanced, and the work environment is supportive. Management encourages professional growth and provides training opportunities, while also offering strong job security.

Cons

Internal communication is generally good, though there is room for continued improvement. During busy seasons, management provides strong support to help teams succeed, and the challenges are similar to what can be found in most organizations.

Pros

It's not often that you get to work for a company that supports their employees and treats them less like widgets and more like family, but that is what I found at First Command. I spent over 20 years working harder and harder for other financial service companies and was asked to do more and appreciated less each passing year. I've now been at First Command for over 10 years and wish I could have been here so much longer. The fact that we get to serve the military community, especially when they most need us, makes it even more rewarding. Great benefits and recognition programs. Strong ESOP with top notch balance sheet management. Loyal and deserving clients. Overall good pay. Communicative leadership. Investment in professional growth and in growing technology. Training is strong and getting better. Worthwhile mission. Potential to grow as a company/employee is ready to explode right now.

Cons

No company is perfect, but I promise that folks here care and strive to do the right thing by all.
