Pros

It is a company that honestly cares about it's clients and it's employees. I have never been more impressed with a company before

Cons

Starting in the business is very difficult, and is nothing to put half a heart into. If you want to succeed, you have to give 100% and then more

Not at all for the employee

Pros

The overall company truly does believe in helping military families. The staff at my location are very friendly and accommodating.

Cons

Next to no employee benefits, inconsistent expectations between advisers. Not to mention each advisory is technically in charge of their own business, so if they choose not to focus on military families or anything else for that matter, there is no accountability. Furthermore, it has been stated that I'm salary unless I go beneath my 40hrs in which case I will be hourly. I don't anticipate staying long though I need a job and will do it to the best of my abilities while I am here. I was hired with shading over the salary and benefits, with bits revealed slowly so as to not have me immediately run. Bottom line, I needed a job. But this will not be a career. I also agree with other commentators, it looks like Home Office has been adding comments to boost their appearance on here. And it is clear that the impression on military bases of this company is quite tarnished.

Pros

A bi weekly paycheck, covered parking, … did I say covered parking?

Cons

Reading some of the recent reviews, it is clear that the company leadership is adding the reviews to boost the company’s poor rating. Let me set the record straight. If you like being yelled out, cursed at, and belittled in every way possible, work at First Command Financial Services. It is clear that the overall philosophy of leadership is to suck every bit of life out of their employees and then discard them. There is no work/life balance. Just work until you drop and then push your corps out of the way. OH, there is a pro, they don’t like the smell of dead body’s stinking up the place.
