Pros

This was a awesome place to work. I enjoyed working with the employees and I enjoyed the work that we did. I also liked the pay for the position.

Cons

Management was horrible and human resources was even worse. They think that calling and asking for feedback about a position is being aggressive in the hiring process and they will block you from being hired because of it.

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.
