Pros

I get an high level of fulfillment serving those who have served our country. They are amazing to work with. And the ESOP retirement contribution is unbelievable. Work life balance for my role is really nice. I put my family first and the company is very supportive.

Cons

Initial salary is only average when you don't consider the retirement benefits.

Thank you for sharing some of the benefits of a career with First Command. Our mission at First Command is incredibly important to our employees and 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 maintain our strong culture and mission by attracting and retaining talented people. We focus on providing our employees with opportunities for professional growth, and we reward them through an attractive compensation and benefits program. We offer competitive pay determined by third-party studies of employers in our market area, which is supplemented with a generous benefits package. Another valuable financial benefit is our Employee Stock Ownership Program, which is available to all qualified employees and funded entirely by company contributions. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

The best job I’ve ever had!

Pros

schedule flexibility, making up hours is easier than other similar jobs, paid vacation, allows staff to work remotely if/when needed, bonuses, growth opportunity, teamwork culture, the admin staff works together to help each other at all times. I feel appreciated and valued by my superiors and peers.

Cons

I don’t think there are cons, but these are areas of improvement instead: Lower than average hourly wages, paid monthly instead of biweekly, and no medical or dental insurance; but again, these were not dealbreakers for me, but may be for others.
