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.

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
