Pros

Great temporary work while looking for other work. Free tax preparation. Training was minimal in the beginning but the job got easier as manager helped with questions as they came up.

Cons

Temporary, seasonal work what is hard to transfer skills to other work. The pay seemed low for the amount of work involved. Often worked long days, after closing.

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.
