Pros

This firm is a limited partnership, so you'll never have to worry about being merged into a competitor. The firm does a great job listening to feedback AND responding with changes as appropriate and allowable. An anonymous suggestion box is always available. Most employees have a great deal of autonomy.

Cons

As with any working environment, if you get stuck with a difficult working partner, you may have a very difficult time getting out of that situation...that's not really a con specific to Edward Jones though.

Pros

Very supportive and fair treatment by corporate and excellent training. Generous 401k plan.

Cons

Unless you are willing to move to a home office location, there are only two field positions - BOA or FA. BOA advancement based on level of FA activity and motivation. If you are teamed with high energy FA, it's great, but the pay raises are slow in a low performing office.
