Pros

autonomy and travel money is fair. Can be very challenging and a lot of fun.

Cons

Total lack of communication on operational matters to many managers and no direct Line of command. sometimes the payroll screws up and no real provision to replace lost info except within regular cycle. There is a lot of selectivity with in the structure and this causes unfair abuses.

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.
