Pros

They get you through the series 7 and 66 exams.

Cons

Push expensive and under preforming mutual funds. Very hard to maintain sales quotas over time for advisors. Jones only cares about Assets. You will find this out when you leave them. Good luck! Talk to some former advisors before you commit. It's a three year commitment or the they will sue you for $75,000 for training.

Pros

- Decent benefits programs. - Teammates who cared about the quality of work they provided and the people they worked with. - Direct superiors who were people of integrity that I respect immensely and wish nothing but the best for.

Cons

- Recent removal of remote work for all associates regardless of how long they had worked remotely previously (13 years in my case). This push to onsite work will damage long term profitability and likely cause a mass exodus of talented associates (if it has not already). - Massive amount of offshore outsourcing that has greatly reduced the quality of work at the home office. - Lack of flexibility regarding work schedules that has severely damaged work-life balance.
