Pros

Working as a financial advisor at Edward Jones offers the opportunity to work in an autonomous environment and to be truly rewarded proportionately to the effort expended.

Cons

Due to the autonomous nature of the financial advisor position, you can feel like and island at times. It is your responsibility to reach out for help. Your efforts at times are not immediately rewarded.

Pros

- Decent benefits programs. - Teammates who cared about the quality of work they provided and the people they worked with. - Direct superiors who were people of integrity that I respect immensely and wish nothing but the best for.

Cons

- Recent removal of remote work for all associates regardless of how long they had worked remotely previously (13 years in my case). This push to onsite work will damage long term profitability and likely cause a mass exodus of talented associates (if it has not already). - Massive amount of offshore outsourcing that has greatly reduced the quality of work at the home office. - Lack of flexibility regarding work schedules that has severely damaged work-life balance.
