      Pros

      The company gives all employees a great level of support. They really care about each employee and are always working hard to improve their systems and communications. Edward Jones also has an excellent culture and truly is a unique place to work.

      Cons

      You really need a sales personality for certain positions in order to succeed. If you don't like sales, the FA position is not for you. Also, since each branch is like its own business, there can be immense pressure for FAs to succeed quickly.

        Pros

        Culture is very important and if you do not embrace the culture you likely will not succeed. Most leaders are there to enhance your growth.

        Cons

        Team leaders are expected to perform more project leadership than team leadership.

      Can anybody share their experience of interviewing at Yelp for a data scientist position?

      I have gone through several interviews (4 so far) for a position within my current company. I would say the interviews were good but I can’t tell if the interviewers were just being polite as I am an internal candidate. HR informed me they will share feedback and “potential next steps” in 10 days as finishing 1st round w/ others. The word potential led me to believe I am being silently rejected and they are waiting for the process to be over to tell me they have chosen someone else. Thoughts?

      I finished third round of interviews but realized there’s an experience that isn’t on my resume (since it’s not directly related to the jobs I’m applying for) nor did I mention it in the interview process, but it would actually be great for me to leverage and demonstrates a relevant skill for the role. Is it worth emailing and dropping a quick note about it, or should I leave it?
