Pros

It’s a remote position. Taxes

Cons

This company will wheel you in.. the CEO Alex have these town hall meetings where you think you gather more insight on what you will be doing but instead it’s a hour of him patting himself on the back! He really does come off as arrogant and misogynistic! The team leads they hire have absolutely no idea how to lead at all! The whole company is very confused with no sense of guidance. They offer a great base pay but good luck getting them to actually pay you for the hours you bill!! Then you have to fight to get a hour or two out of the pot as it’s a first come first serve thing. The training is non existent, you literally are instructed to self learn the program, learn the systems , learn how to bill for your hours, and learn the metrics!! All within a week, then they throw you on the phones. If you reach out for assistance with anything you are instantly reprimanded and made to feel stupid for asking.. All of these positive reviews I believe are fake or are incentivized. We literally had a whole team just quit last year! Oh and Ms. Ann please don’t come with the template, hot n ready responses. Nothing you can say will justify this nonsense. Sad thing is that I love preparing taxes for customers, this company has left a bad taste for the whole industry!

Pros

Great organization with opportunities for advancement. I started as seasonal staff, and promoted into permanent staff after a few seasons. The leadership truly cares about individual ambition and advancement. Show up and stand out (in a good way), focus on personal and professional development, and the opportunities are endless!

Cons

As a new(ish) company, and as a rapidly expanding company, there are obvious growing pains. Many times, something that works decently well will be completely rebuilt from the group up to make it better, which can cause friction. However, ultimately, the finished product, and the company trajectory, continue to improve.

Pros

It's nice that for most role, it is fully remote. Nice people to work with.

Cons

There is a lack of documentation for the role. Almost always learned how to do something by getting it wrong the first time. Generally, the team seemed to have a antagonistic feeling with the client we served and rested on the laurels of past accomplishments.
