Rough Around the Edges with Tremendous Potential - Financial Advisor First Command Financial Services Employee Review

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We appreciate your comments on the benefits of working at First Command, including training and dedicated support from our Home Office. At First Command, one of our most valuable offerings is the Fast Start program, which provides intense professional development to prepare new people to serve our clients as independent Advisors. As you've mentioned, some of the benefits of that program include paying new Advisors during the training period and offering a full array of employee benefits. Through the program, our Advisors learn how to build and grow their own business, serve new clients and provide face-to-face financial coaching. Our Advisors are eligible to earn a strong income through competitive industry commissions on sales of financial products, plus additional annual and deferred compensation. Our Advisors often 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. We appreciate your feedback on including more training on financial planning and will be sharing your thoughts with leadership.
