Pros

NONE.. ZERO. NADA.

Cons

Don't waste your time interviewing because you'll be stuck in the '70s, if hired. The pay is so far below market rate as to be insulting. And don't expect any kind of raise at annual review time. Their idea of a raise is $0.34 an hour. That's not a typo. That was my raise after being at the company two years. And any kind of bonus will depend on how greedy your FA is. He/She determines how much you will receive. The BOAs are expected to do all the dirt work, and forget about how late you have to stay to complete it. This is particularly true if you happen to have the bad luck to work for an FA who waits until 3:00pm to start pushing out projects. As I emphasized up front, DON'T waste your time as a BOA with Jones. It's a dead-end job.

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.
