We appreciate you taking time to share your positive experience. We are committed to creating and sustaining a culture that inspires our employees and makes them feel appreciated and a part of the First Command family. As part of our commitment to our employees, we have implemented a flexible, hybrid work environment which reflects a meaningful balance of in-office experiences with work that can be done virtually. The results of our recent employee experience surveys underscore the value of face-to-face interactions, which allow us to develop deeper relationships and pursue greater creativity and innovation, all while striking harmony between work and personal life. Thank you again for sharing your experience. We are excited about your future with us. P.S. There are larger parking spaces in the upper levels of our parking structure.

Pros

First Command is a company deeply committed to its values and mission, which unites everyone across the enterprise and serves as the foundation for decisions and progress. It genuinely values its employees, fostering an environment where people can bring their authentic selves to work each day. It’s a place where individuals can establish and grow a long-term career.

Cons

Like many organizations, First Command faces challenges with change management. Too often, decisions are influenced by the loudest voices, which may not always represent the best perspectives. As a company in transition, there is tremendous potential to emerge stronger and more effective, but this depends on executing well on good intentions. Poor execution could have significant negative impacts, undermining the very progress and values the company strives to uphold.
