Pros

Compensation is aligned with performance well and if your team performs, you can do well for yourself. Also, need to to make sure you negotiate an appropriate salary when you start as raises can depend on the company's overall performance versus your own individually.

Cons

Lack of opportunity for advancement, unless you are very flexible with re-location. Work/life balance is a struggle.

Business Outlook

Pros

There are several positives to working with Block. As a district manager, you set your own schedule, the benefits are good, you get to work with some very good people.

Cons

There is a very big disconnect between the corporate HQ and the field. The field doesn't believe HQ understands the challenges that occur with the client and for the most part they are correct. The corporate strategy has been continually trying to pull more work/production from the field for the same/less pay to drive up the stock price. Areas of responsibility are literally 2-3 times as large as they were 5 years ago which leads to huge challenges in being able to execute at a high level. The company has continually advertised free services the past couple years to bring in new clients, but have no plan to retain those clients once they are no longer under the free umbrella.
