Pros

You can listen to music. The work's predictable- 1040s all night, rarely any difficult surprises. Coworkers were almost all interesting, good people.

Cons

Pretty much the most boring job ever- 1040s all night, 1 after another post training. Training takes forever- only a problem since you're on abbreviated schedule. Exceeding standards is not rewarded. Once you're in, you will not be let go as a seasonal employee.

Pros

This is not a boring job. At time, there are lots of opportunities to advance your career and learn different aspects of tax administration.

Cons

The federal government does not understand that a lot of employees are leaving due to attrition and that they need to replace them. Promotions and new hires are few and far between at the current time.
