Pros

Good Training program. Limited, but high quality investment offerings. Good place for pure Salespeople. Good place to get work if you have the support of someone in a leadership position.

Cons

Tranaction based compensation system is dated. Fee based offerings are inflexible. High FA turnover may eventually sully firm's reputation.

Pros

Edward Jones has a strong culture where associates really enjoy working. The partnership structure gives the firm additional flexibility compared to a corporation. Leaders put an absolute emphasis on doing what's right for clients.

Cons

The firm does not pay the majority of associates a market competitive salary. In most cases, there is a great disparity between the compensation of general partners and the associates.
