Pros

Good Training. Up front on how you get paid Supportive culture if you are performing Run your own office without worries of overhead expense. Office hour flexibility, but most people need to work at least 50hrs/wk

Cons

LImited investment options. They Promote Solutions based approach, but can't be compensated without selling something No fee based platform, new managed account platform with no flexibility(they call fee based) Very sales and product driven, can't always do what is best for client if you want to get paid eventhough EDJ gets paid. Very Very inflexible Pay is terrible first few years for 90+% of advisors. Again honest on how you get paid lied about how much you will make in first few years.

Pros

Entrepreneurial environment with access to resources, tips, and tools for success. Industry recognized training and license preparation. 100% control over all aspects of business development. Superior product partner relationships.

Cons

Challenging business model for established adult/family lifestyle, i.e., more conducive for individuals with minor living expenses and little (or shared) responsibilities.

Pros

Great company with great pay and benefits. Great tools and resources when you have questions or want to get more involved and learn more about the finance industry.

Cons

I cant really think of any cons of working for Edward Jones. I think its because I work for a great financial advisor who does respect me and the work I do and we have great communication.
