Pros

Work from home friendly (for most teams), good people (co-workers), yearly bonus. Good work/life balance on some teams (but not all)

Cons

Corporate slop environment - revolving door of managers, endless cycle of constant reorgs and layoffs even during good years. Raises are minimual even with good performance - you'll need to change positions/teams to get any real wage increase.

Pros

H&R Block provides thorough training, and employees should expect to study continuously throughout the season. The training is valuable and helps build a strong understanding of tax preparation. There are opportunities to "level up," and advancing through the certification levels can lead to higher pay over time. Management is approachable and readily available when assistance is needed.

Cons

The position is seasonal, and the starting pay is $12 per hour. During peak tax season, employees may work very long hours—sometimes up to 10 hours a day, 6 to 7 days a week—which can be physically and mentally exhausting. In my first month, I also found that some of the staff were not especially welcoming, which made the initial adjustment more challenging.
