Pros

Ive got one direct supervisor located in Witchita, KS. Because of this most of my job is very self motivated. I'm never bored, and love the traveling.

Cons

Pay..... plain and simple, fast food workers get paid more, and the freedom and lack of stress hardly compensates for it.

Pros

- Gained experience doing Point Of Sale - Short commute - Getting to know clients

Cons

- I was told not to tell anyone asking about pricing about our exact pricing - Low pay - No benefits - Being expected to accommodate clients who demanded same day appointments/walk-ins - Being expected to do cold calling while handling clients in person and incoming calls at the same time - I was not fully trained in person on how to locate specific forms in the system which led to me being shamed by a Tax Pro who - System for cold calling was not updated regularly to reflect which clients came back to file

Pros

A company wide week off in the month of July. Can gain great skills to land a more successful job. Learn to work under intense pressure especially during the tax season. If you can handle this place, every other job will be super easy.

Cons

Intensely long hours during tax season. Work life balance is kinda a lie. Management struggles to retain new associates as they are not equipped to train and help them grow. Pay is low compared to other companies, as you grow in the company it barely increases. I have met so many software engineers who worked at block over 10 years and are still making under 100k year. A lot of management is Indian, which is not a problem, but they hire other Indians exclusively. The only diversity I’m seeing is the addition of associates from the accelerator program they have.
