God awful low paid nightmare, working here was the worst mistake of my life - Anonymous Edward Jones Employee Review

My personal opinions follow: Accepting a job at Edward Jones and turning down competing offers was THE worst mistake of my life. The fact Edward Jones still even exists blows my mind. You have door to door salespeople trying to sell front-end loaded funds (commission heavy) and advisory solutions (commission heavy) which are just absolute things of the past. I would LOVE to see where their advisory services consistently beat the no load index funds when considering fees. Please Edward Jones, prove me wrong. From my experience in the Tempe office, there were many "leaders" who had completely irrelevant education or were graduates of what I consider fake for profit colleges like University of Phoenix. Trust me when dealing with them, it shows. When you take into consideration overtime worked unpaid, I made more per hour working on my college campus as a student worker than I did at Edward Jones. Not to mention the hours and stress ruined my life. I don't say that lightly. Working at Edward Jones literally ruined my life (until I left of course). To this day the only benefit I have from working here was comparing any/every awful situation I've experienced since leaving to the fact that it could be worse like when I worked at Edward Jones. I worked 70+ hour weeks using their archaic proprietary systems with no overtime. I literally told them during the interviews I don't work excessive overtime and I was lied to about nearly every facet of the position I took. My mistakes were many here. Believing these propaganda artists was one, accepting the position #2, not quitting the second their lies became apparent #3.
