Working at H&R Block

Pros

Flexible with work schedule. If you are looking to get your foot in the door in accounting it is an excellent place to work. I worked here while I was in college. I gained client interviewing skills and professional skills they don't teach you in school. Great training program.

Cons

Compensation, promotion. If you worked as long as I did and you see how much revenue you are bringing to the company it can definitely make you uneasy.

you are able to make a flexible schedule eligible for unemployment at the end of the tax season interesting and informative tax course, great for future knowledge

Cons

fairly low base hourly wages, especially during the "slow" months limited growth opportunity commission model makes it nearly impossible to make a nice bonus

Pros

The associates and management are very friendly, informed and helpful. Plenty of reference materials are available in paper format as well as electronic. There is a website to send complicated tax questions to receive answers within 2 business days. I have access to dozens of free courses. I am grateful that H&R Block hired me back at age 60.

Cons

Convincing new clients that we deserve the fees that we are charging.
