Working at First Command Financial Services in Fort Worth, TX: 6 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Fort Worth, TX Area

"I worked at First Command for 22+ years. World Class organization"

"I worked for First Command for almost 5 years. The company has a great mission...to help military clients succeed financially. The culture overall is good but declined in my group after a management change. I would recommend the company in general but not in my former group."

"First Command is a military company for military people, both clients and employees. Very little training is provided and you are let loose on the world with no direction or help. First year goals are all based upon selling insurance which should have been my first clue as to what this company really is: a glorified insurance company. They have a wonderful managed funds program but the payouts are so insanely low, you'll never make a living off of your AUM. You need to be constantly selling whole life insurance or your time with First Command will be short-lived."
