Pros

The people there are good people that work hard.

Cons

This company will work you into the ground and then some. The company is very top heavy and they certainly don't pay for performance. It is all based on goals set. If the company sets unrealistic goals and you dont meet them your bonus and raise (if you get any at all) suffer.

Pros

I loved working with our clients and doing taxes, but management was in shambles

Cons

They don't treat their employees right. They're constantly adding sales to the job and compensation is low for all the extras that they want tax pros to perform. And then if you don't make quotas for the tax season, then when the new season starts they cut your pay. I left after I was cut down after missing my quota from 9.50 hr to 7.50 an hour. I refused to do all the work they expected out of me for minimum wage. I had worked for H&R block for 4 years. Now I'm happily just doing taxes for another firm during tax season and well compensated for my ability and not having to be a salesperson at the same time.

Pros

Colleagues and clients are fantastic to work for and with.

Cons

It does not matter whether you have worked for one year or 30 years the pay scale gets worse every year. Since Mr. Block is no longer in charge we are treated and paid like minimum wage earners.
