Pros

Free training/certification, seasonal work, friends and family discount for tax prep, they will hire just about anyone who can type.

Cons

Because they hire just about anyone, they seriously review rounding and other basic elementary school math during training. Pay is horrible (less than $10), prices are outrageous for customers and you have to justify it to them (I could do 4-5 $60 tax basic preps per hour...), high stress (no one likes or understands the finances or politics behind taxes), generally boring if there's no customers. They force a "company culture" on to you and try to make everyone feel "included" with big events but it just feels so fake, like a high school pep rally.

Pros

Excellent opportunities for growth. Self paced training to advance. It is up to the individual to make of it what he/she wants. The rewards are gratifying and on hand experience is excellent.

Cons

Job is seasonal. Although there are a few year round offices it is not very easy to be assigned to one.
