[SW:TFA] Why is Captain Phasma standing with General Hux when he makes his speech? Captain is a pretty low rank as officers go, unless you're talking about a naval officer which Phasma is not.

The First Order military rank structure isn't congruent with others that you may be familiar with.  Captain Phasma is part of the First Order's highest level command structure.  She commands the entire Stormtrooper corps, and is functionally equal in rank to Hux and Ren and reports directly to Snoke.
