"Good place to train and learn."

What do you like about working at Edward Jones?

"Pretty good training to enter the industry. Great trips to fun meetings."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Yes, if you demand that you go into the PASS program at home office. This insures you are trained in all departments. Once you are there you will understand how the Jones system truly works. DO NOT accept to just become an advisor out in the field right away unless the situation is just absolutely mind blowing."

What don't you like about working at Edward Jones?

"Literally, every chance to make money off of the advisors was taken. When I left the company and went on COBRA, I was paying the same amount on COBRA as I was on the company medical plan. Because it seems the firm was profiting, as a partnership, off of their advisors on their self insured medical plan. Also, any new marketing or advertising initiatives (google adwords) were used only to drive new biz to top producers, never to newer advisors."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Come up with an original idea for once. Millions of dollars in compensation I think warrants some original thought."
