Pros

What I love most about my job is that it is a low stress job. One Financial advisor and one BOA (Branch Office Administrator ) for most offices. The highest levels may have an extra BOA or two. You work as a team, getting to know your clients and serving their individual financial needs. The pay and benefits are good and I love the feeling of helping people meet financial goals. My finanial advisor and I work well together and have mutual respect for one another. There is a lot to learn, but there are home office direct lines that walk you through every process and answer every question that arises, not just during training, but for all employees, anytime. You are also assigned a Mentor the first year of training. The support among the staff is unprecedented in my 30 year work history. There are also quarterly bonuses. I left my last job that I loved after 15 years of employment due to relocating. I was sure I'd never find a job I lived as much as that one. I was wrong. I worked for a year at a bank corporate office and kept looking until I was hired at Edward Jones. It is my favorite job ever! I highly recommend them and the BOA position to anyone. My children are grown now and I won't be utilizing it, but they just added a 4 month PAID new baby package for the main caregiver to our benefits. 4 Months! They are good to their employees. I won't leave Edward Jones until I retire if I can help it!

Cons

Really can't think of any cons.

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
