Pros
They pay for series 7 and 66
Cons
Where do I start. This is by far the worst experience of my life. You go through a 2 month process, and they preach that this is the greatest job in the world. I had zero support as far as training. Your job is not a FA. Your job is to walk through neighborhoods and annoy people all day long. Most people are not home because they are working. So after you work 50 to 60 hours Monday through Friday, you are then expected to spend all day on Saturday door knocking. I probably knocked on 3000 doors and got 1 client. They want you to recruit all of your family and friends. Yeah, I am going to give my life savings to someone who has been in the business for a month and take it away from my current financial advisor who has been in the business for 30 years. Stay away from this job for your own sanity. I never post on job boards, but I am just trying to help others from making an awful decision. If you are lucky enough to get 20 million in assets given to you, then by all means take the job. Otherwise, stay far far way from Edward Jones.
