Pros

EDJ is great for the late career changer. All training is in house and plenty of extra training help is available. I was 54 when I started and after 5 years I have never looked back.

Cons

The Financial Advisor world is rapidly changing. Competition is real. Although EDJ does a great job implementing upgrades one must remember that this is a BIG company and some changes take a long time. Not a big deal really.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
