      Pros

      It's a good place to work if they let you do it.

      Cons

      When you get the boss from hell who can't accept that you know how to do your job, it's not worth it. It was a franchise district and I worked full time. Every time I had a week's vacation due, my boss would tell me I couldn't take it because she had to visit one of the franchises. She also 'helped' me with the bookkeeping when another franchise director was off sick for the month of January and there was a new bookkeeping program out that was very complicated so I spent the month on the phone taking calls from our franchises and his. She did the bookkeeping and I had all of 2 days off all month because I had to redo Jan. and Feb.

      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.
