Pros

First Command is led by an inspirational, personable, and experienced CEO who has a great vision for where we need to go while staying true to who we are and why this company was founded. The culture welcomes and encourages a fun time that both supports our community and exemplifies the true meaning of patriotism by always remaining focused on our active military and veterans. The mission of the company drives the hard work of the teams here at First Command. In addition to standard benefits, additional perks are nice too - gym, pickleball courts, food vendors on site, hybrid schedule, practical dress code, free garage parking, financial planning, many volunteer opportunities, and plenty others.

Cons

Base pay can be on the lower end, but overall the company is great to work for and the mission and people you get to serve can make it worth it.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. 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 are committed to attracting and retaining talented people. In our Home Office in Fort Worth, Texas, employees enjoy opportunities for professional growth, and we reward them through an attractive compensation and benefits program. We offer competitive pay supplemented with a generous benefits package. As an employee-owned company, we offer an Employee Stock Ownership Program to qualified employees. This valuable retirement benefit is funded entirely by company contributions. Meanwhile, in our local offices across the U.S. and overseas, office managers and other support staff professionals enjoy pay and benefits set by our local Advisors. In all cases the goal is to attract the best people and reward them for committed service. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on our Home Office. Renovations are underway and we are hopeful to continue providing a collaborative space where employees can feel comfortable doing the best work of their lives in support of the best clients in the world, our nation's military families.
