Pros
Best reasons to work at Jones is their flexibility with family committments. Firm also gives FA their own office and an office administrator. Also have diversification trips that FA's can win if they sell a certain amount of diversified portfolio products. Ranked #2 on Fortune's 100 Best Companies to Work For.
Cons
Don't have the capacity to support HNW investors. Discourage FA's from prospecting in areas where HNW investors reside. Firm seems to have a low self-image when it comes to serving HNW investors. Average account size natiowide for Jones FA's is only $50,000. Top producing FA's at Jones would only be mid-level at larger national wirehouses.
