Pros

The only real “pro,” in my experience, was connecting with a few coworkers who were also trying to survive the same dysfunction. Nothing about the actual structure, leadership, or environment was a positive.

Cons

In my personal experience, this company was one of the most chaotic and unprofessional environments I’ve ever seen. The music on the sales floor was so loud that focusing felt impossible, yet they mask it from clients using Krisp so it only hurts the employees. I repeatedly saw a “no-vape policy” that meant absolutely nothing, because in my opinion leadership openly ignored it — including team leads and even the sales manager vaping in the office. The place runs more on AI than actual people, but employees are still expected to grind out sales numbers as if they’re part of a machine. Everywhere you look, whiteboards scream SALES SALES SALES, which makes it obvious that client care is an afterthought at best. I also witnessed underperforming employees taking over new people’s cases just to keep certain teams alive, which in my view destroys fairness, training, confidence, and service quality. This felt less like a professional workplace and more like a desperate sales floor trying to disguise itself as a tax resolution company.

Pros

From someone who has worked at several tax relief firm, Taxrise has figured out the correct way to run this industry. They are constantly looking for ways to improve the customer and employee experience. The training here is what sets them apart. Every other tax relief company had me on the phone day 1, even with no experience. Pay has also been much better; Their system creates a easy flow for going through cases and reaching bonuses.

Cons

Excellence is the expectation. The standards are high to make sure we provide the best service to clients.

Pros

Good quality lunches on Fridays.

Cons

Frat house hazing vibes only with the nerds in charge. Favoritism, if you’re not kissing up to management it’s hard to make a decent check.
