Ventajas

They will sponsor you to get great certification in the industry. If you have a military connection or enjoy that environment it can be a good fit.

Desventajas

Long script memorization process. Limited to the military, and eventually all commission.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience as a Financial Advisor. At First Command, we regard our focus on the military as one of our biggest strengths. We are committed to supporting the lifelong financial security of our Nation’s military families. 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. Four out of five First Command Financial Advisors come from the ranks of veterans and military spouses. For these Advisors, the career is about serving those who serve through quality, face-to-face financial coaching. 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 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. We appreciate your feedback and thank you for taking the time to share your experience.

Ventajas

* Having a mission-driven company with a meaningful customer group gives a sense of purpose. * The Employee Stock Option Program (ESOP) gives a common goal throughout the company, which cuts back on the corporate politics I've encountered at other companies. * Leadership is investing in modernization, so being able to help update mature processes leaves an opportunity to make an impact. * Company culture generally values personal improvement, offering investments in personal training and goals that feel supportive of one's career.

Desventajas

* Decision-making can be slower than in less regulated industries. Although necessary, the combination of compliance, legal review, governance, etc. can make things feel like the move slow for someone accustomed to nimble decision making. * Modernization requires patience and employees have to manage expectations of timeline on some of the corporate improvements.
