Pros

Wonderful tax education with access to massive resources. Seasoned CPAs are kind and helpful to new Tax Associates.

Cons

The hours allowed don't add up to a reasonable paycheck. When applying, the estimates of what I could make as a new associate were overblown by magnitudes! With the amount of training and credentials required, you would expected a professional job experience but the position ended up a minimum wage job with very few hours doled out. Prior to applying you must have graduated from their Block Academy. I spent 7 weeks, often studying 12 hours a day and passed the test in week 8. Once hired there were many more training hurtles to clear with only minimal hours allowed averaging $240 for two weeks work. Once integrated in the storefront office, the pressure to sell their financial products was intense and included another 4 week long Teams training. Being "ready to serve" was a big accomplishment but the access to the CPA's was spotty when the office was busy.
