      Pros

      I've been a seasonal, tax preparer at H&R Block for the past nine seasons. It's been a fruitful relationship for me. Every off-season I take advantage of H&R Block's training and education programs. I've been able to build up my clientele (diverse, broad-range of taxpayers) within a higher-end tax office. It's proven to be a terrific part-time, seasonal opportunity for me.

      Cons

      Company policies and procedures are not consistently enforced in the individual tax offices. Seasonal benefits are minimal.

      Pros

      Flexible availability. Path for promotion is obvious and quantified.

      Cons

      Bonus/commission it is based on level and sales so is low in states without a state tax form. Hourly wage comes out of bonus. Pressure to sell items that don't add to your commission. They push customer surveys but you can be penalized if someone complains about the company, price, amount of emails etc even though you have no control. Some employees are frustratingly low quality and you will spend time helping or fixing their mistakes time that works against your commission. You are expected to answer phones, make appointments, scan, print, take money, help new comers all while maximizing returns. If you take over someone's client and find a mistake you are expected to work against your commission to file amendments peace of mind claims etc.
