Pros

Privately held. Not subject to take over. Minimal layoffs in the culture of the firm. The limited partnership offerings are a great benefit with a fixed income portion. They believe in training and associates have opportunity to grow into increasing responsibility when skills are demonstrated.

Cons

Benefits are not similar to other large companies in the same industry. They try but the profit structure does not allow Edward Jones to compete as aggressively as others in the benefit category for associates.

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.
