Pros

Great CEO, genuinely cares about people.

Cons

There is a very real woke culture at H&R Block. You couldn't get through the lobby most weeks without something being celebrated. I am all for celebrating diversity and inclusion. But it was crickets on Veterans Day. No note from management to Veterans. One culture is flexible, inclusive, etc. For IT, you are expected to be in the office every day and while they can't enforce that, it is enforced in performance reviews. The lowest paid member of my team (by a wide margin) - for years, despite my efforts, was African American.

Pros

If you get in the right office you can have amazing coworkers and can learn so much. You can gain a ton of experience and knowledge if you are willing to work and collaborate with other preparers. Training is robust and is there for you to utilize and work your way up to higher salary. The potential to earn a full years salary working for half the year once trained up to a higher level and build your book of business.

Cons

Communication is often not the best and in the offseason you are off boarded or get reduced salary and only work a day or two a week
