Edward Jones is a leading North American financial services firm that serves millions of clients with more trillions of dollars in client assets under its care. The firm’s purpose is to partner for positive impact to improve the lives of its clients and colleagues, and together, better communities and society. In April, company officials announced the firm had been ranked number 21 on the 2026 Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work list by Great Place To Work and Fortune Magazine, an accolade that places the firm among the top workplaces in the country and reinforces its long-standing focus on people, purpose, and growth. This recognition reflects what Edward Jones associates themselves report: a workplace grounded in trust, fairness and care, where people feel respected, supported and able to make a meaningful impact.
Compiled annually by Great Place To Work and Fortune Magazine, rankings are determined largely through employee surveys measuring how people experience their workplace. The feedback evaluates key factors such as trust in leadership, opportunities for career development, wellbeing, and overall sense of purpose within the organization. For Edward Jones, the recognition reflects the firm’s commitment to helping associates grow at every stage of their careers.
Edward Jones’ workplace culture supports more than 55,000 associates across North America in a wide range of roles, from financial advisors and practice teams to home office professionals and technology specialists. Built on a relationship-based model, the firm offers opportunities for continuous growth and on-the-job learning, alongside comprehensive benefits and a people-first culture grounded in purpose and inclusion. At Edward Jones, people grow their practice and expertise over time and stay because that growth enables real, lasting impact for clients, colleagues, and communities.
“This recognition is especially meaningful because it reflects the voices and experiences of our associates,” according to Suzan McDaniel, Chief Human Resources Officer at Edward Jones. “Earning an even stronger position on this year’s list reinforces that our continued investments in growth, wellbeing and purpose are resonating. We remain focused on creating an environment where people feel supported, empowered and proud of the impact they make for clients, colleagues and communities.”
In March, officials announced that the firm had earned the number one ranking among 23 advice-based wealth management firms in the J.D. Power 2026 U.S. Investor Satisfaction Study, with an overall satisfaction score of 754 on a 1,000-point scale. It placed the firm among only three companies scoring significantly above the advised-industry average of 725. The achievement reflects Edward Jones’ continued investment in personalized financial advice, expanded product offerings, and advanced digital capabilities designed to deepen client relationships.
Earlier in the year, Edward Jones was ranked number four on Fortune’s 2026 World’s Most Admired Companies list in the Securities/Asset Management industry category. Officials say the firm remains committed to the values that earned its place on the annual list, from reputation and leadership to innovation and overall firm performance. The firm, which is a Member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, has been a Hacienda tenant since September 2005.
"Our inclusion on Fortune’s World’s Most Admired Companies list is an honor that reflects the trust we’ve earned and the uncompromising standards to which we hold ourselves,” according to Ken Cella, Principal, Head of External Affairs. “At Edward Jones, our focus on improving the lives of our clients, colleagues, and communities continues to define how we lead and how we serve.”
