I believe my experience was not as good as others do to my District Advisor being completely absent from his job. - Financial Advisor First Command Financial Services Employee Review

Pros

Home Office is very helpful. Most District Advisors are actively supportive. There are other Advisors out there always willing to help you become successful.

Cons

Not enough administration help while trying to meet quotas. The District Advisors lack knowledge on products, but they sure act educated. Make sure what they are teaching you is factual. Make sure your DA is actively involved and liked by the other Advisors you will be working with. You will need it to survive. DA's are given too much power and can cause a lot of conflict within what should be a team.
