Best Workplace for Millennials 2016

Financial-services firm Edward Jones  was recognized as one of the 100 Best Workplaces for Millennials in the country by Great Place to Work^® and Fortune magazine.

Edward Jones ranked the No. 10 best workplace for millennials, a generation defined from the early 1980s through 2001.

This ranking comes from an anonymous survey of associates administered by the workplace culture experts at Great Place to Work^®.

"As we grow our firm to serve succeeding generations of individual investors, we know that attracting and developing millennials is key to our long-term success," said Edward Jones Managing Partner Jim Weddle.  "We offer a career destination and a business model that allows them to make a meaningful difference in the lives of our clients."

Edward Jones and the 99 other winning companies were selected based on the evaluations of nearly 90,000 millennial-aged employees who were surveyed using the Trust Index^©, Great Place to Work’s employee assessment survey. The 100 Best Workplaces for Millennials is part of a series of rankings by Great Place to Work^® and Fortune based entirely on employee surveys from published Great Place to Work^® Reviews.
