Pros

Edward Jones has a strong culture where associates really enjoy working. The partnership structure gives the firm additional flexibility compared to a corporation. Leaders put an absolute emphasis on doing what's right for clients.

Cons

The firm does not pay the majority of associates a market competitive salary. In most cases, there is a great disparity between the compensation of general partners and the associates.

Pros

Excellent training for someone new to the industry or to sales in general. If you follow their recipe you will not fail.

Cons

Very difficult, nearly impossible to start from scratch. If you follow their recipe you will not fail, but that doesn't necessarily equal success either.
