Pros

Great training program long as you do the reading. Very good training, alot of product knowledgement given to you. Plenty of peer support

Cons

You gotta go out and get your own customer. Edward Jones gives you everything you need to provide for and maintain the client, what they don't give you is the client. You gotta get the client. The only suggestion they have for you to get them is to door-knock. and the doorknocking is forced on you so don't even think about avoiding it. You have no office your first year, you work off a labtop.

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
