Another reason could be more philosophical/religious. Halone is the Goddess of War/rage is she not? It could simply have started as a movement called "The Daughters of Halone" which had an open invitation to all women who strive to honor the ideals of the Goddess.
It could have been a passive organization that from time to time got together to accomplish certain things, but during the wars a core group arose amongst one of the Grand Companies and operated like a special forces unit. After the war the Leaders of that unit reorganized under a new Free Company which now operates like a mercenary guild. It would make sense for the leaders of the LS to be former Grand Company officers or something like that who are now trying to expand their new business by recruiting members who can follow the ideas of Halone.
The involvement could also be on somewhat loose to allow for more IC freedom of association. e.g. You can belong to another organizations full time but also be a Daughter of Halone. Maybe you're a crafter who supports by supplying items. Or maybe you have a full time Job with a Grand Company, but when the call of the Daughters go out, you have a slight dilemma trying to serve both masters.
You could have a lot of Philanthropic reasons for their motivations as well. Perhaps most of their profits go toward supporting an orphanage or a school for girls, so none martial classes like scholars and mages could have full time occupations within the company outside of missions/jobs. So it could have a 'Heroines with Heart' sort of feel.
OOC'ly I think this would work best as a LS and when events are organized a call goes out to all members to gather for a new mission, recruitment drive, bake sale-you get the idea ^_^
