6 Business Office Administrator Reviews
Submit a Review"I love everything about my career. I enjoy the ability to work with clients and their families. It's fulfilling to be able to help people and assist them with things that are very stressful to them. I do not like it when I am unable to help someone because of things that I cannot control, i.e. - insurance companies, Medicaid/Medicare guidelines, etc."

"My experience at Edward Jones was not at all satisfactory."
What do you like about working at Edward Jones?
"The job was definitely fun. I was in charge of the marketing and had the opportunity to meet some great individuals. I also gained a lot of knowledge in regards to investments, profit sharing, 401k, annuities, etc."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"I think Edward Jones is a great company but the office that I was specifically working at did not take the time to train nor did they pay attention to any of my needs. Instead, they placed me under a Sr. BOA that was power hungry and felt threatened by what I could offer. Beware."
What don't you like about working at Edward Jones?
"I reported directly to a Sr. BOA and she felt threatened by me for the most part. She kept me from moving forward because of her own insecurities."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Take a moment to evaluate the kind of Sr. BOAs you have in place and really pay attention to the needs of the BOAs that are joining Edward Jones for the first time and are trying to learn as much as possible."
