Pros

Sense of belonging. Good support system. Decent pay. Good hours. Team work. No experience needed.

Cons

You'll fall in love with them. But it's seasonal. They may ask you to stay. But there are still 0 benefits. This was the only thing that made me leave.

Pros

Strong Team Culture Personalized Development

Cons

Some of the Customer Service Pay In Kansas City Generous Perks and Benefits but only for Full Time Employment Year-Round which affects internal morale for agents who work hard but only allowed seasonal and much less attractive benefits.

Pros

Ok job during COVID to just make ends meet until companies started hiring again.

Cons

No true full time work or benefits. Very understaffed and will make employees work open-close shifts due to callouts. Generally unorganized and tax preparers were very political and were openly racist, one in particular was named Dennia (sp?). Old and senile and put her hands on me angered by the fact I booked her back to back appointments even though that's what I'm told to do due to the volume. Also the majority of old preparers were all MAGA crazy and it was really uncomfortable. Funny how they all blamed Biden on economic issues when he was in office for only a year when Trump's tax laws were still in effect at that point, which you would figured they'd know being tax preparers.

Pros

Full time 40 hrs per week only jan to april. Less than 10 employees in my district work outside of that timeframe. No benefits due to seasonality. Unpaid training encouraged. Look for something better.

Cons

No benefits and seasonal employment thus high turnover. Pay on par with retail/ fast food

Pros

During the Busy Tax season, the work is almost non-stop.

Cons

During the main tax season, they do everything possible to prevent overtime, despite the needs of the clients. During the Preseason (Apr 16-Dec 31), they force all preseason employees to take a mandatory 8 week furlough, and then when not on the furlough, you are to be capped at <15 hours a week (Not enough to live on. The company does this so that they are not required to provide benefits to anyone that is not in the mid to senior level management (District General Managers and up). Management is made up of non Tax Professional, but general business managers. Back before the Passing of Henry Bloch, the last co-founder of the corporation, it was bought up by basically venture capitalists, who only care about their pay and not those who earn the money that they pocket. I currently am finishing week number 12 of my 8 week furlough (nice way to treat your employees)!
