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.”

Pros

The company offers an on-site gym and lunch vendors.

Cons

Lack of integrity at senior manager levels. Ir'It'a night and day difference between senior managers who've been in the military and those who haven't. Managers with prior military experience understand the importance of integrity and taking care of your people. Non-military folks understand the importance of 'it's all about me' and will throw you under the bus if things go wrong and take credit when things go right.
