A great opportunity if you're willing to put in a lot of work/end up in a supportive district - Financial Advisor First Command Financial Services Employee Review

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience as a First Command Financial Advisor. We seek to attract and retain talented people by providing employees and Advisors with opportunities to enhance their professional knowledge, develop leadership skills and grow within the organization. As you note, our Advisors do face some challenges, but they also enjoy many opportunities. Our Advisors go through an extensive training program designed to equip them to succeed as independent contractors. Some of the benefits of that program include paying new Advisors during the training and licensing period and offering a full array of employee benefits. They are eligible to earn a strong income through competitive industry commissions on sales of financial products, plus additional annual and deferred compensation. The mission of the company is incredibly important to our 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 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. Encouraging feedback is part of that commitment. We maintain an open-door policy where employees and Advisors are invited to share their experiences so we can initiate positive change. Thank you again and we appreciate your feedback.
