Pros

The people I worked with were amazing. I had senior tax advisors in my office that were there for over 25 years! The district employees were more than willing to help out with anything I needed and aid in teaching the newer tax pros anything and everything.

Cons

Communication and some favoritism was an issue. There was also a high turnover of District Managers making it difficult to know what standards were being set.

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.
