Pros

A company who is dedicated to doing what is right for the investor knowing it will be good for the company as well over time. Very focused on what the customer experience is and how it impacts the advisers business as well. Constantly improving technology to help the advisor be more efficient as well as have the needed information ready for a client.

Cons

You must be a focused, independent and hard working person to succeed. We want successful people from almost any background to consider Edward Jones. Previous investment knowledge is not necessary.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
