Business Outlook
Pros
Lots of opportunities to move up. Fairly supportive of work-life balance. Good benefits.
Cons
Need to be prepared for annual layoffs. I worked for Block for almost 14 years and we have had layoffs in every single year. Typically they occur at the end of tax season. Over the years, they have cut a lot of really good people with a lot of mindshare and history with the company. It is as hard on the people left behind as it is on the ones who are let go. I know a lot of people who have left the company voluntarily because they just felt like they couldn't go through another season of "will they or won't they let me or my fellow team members go?"
