Pros

Easy highway access good parking

Cons

What happens to tax products under a new administration that's determined to cut ACA and simplify IRS? Turnover is crazy high, employees are underpaid and undervalued, upper management is disengaged, the company is unable to commit to any strategy, office politics are very high, managers play favorites, overall very unhealthy, unstable and unrewarding environment

Pros

Flexible work environment: working remotely is permitted when needed. Reimbursement and compensation for many travel expenses. Casual atmosphere: business casual/smart casual attire is permitted. Monthly company social events. Welcoming and helpful leadership and colleagues. Intensive training provided. On-the-job learning is expected and encouraged. Good balance between independence and managerial oversight.

Cons

The salary is unsustainable, especially for those with student debt from obtaining professional degrees. Compensation is well below the range for comparable positions in the area (according to Glassdoor, over $30,000 below the average). As a result, they have poor employee retention which gives the impression that employees are undervalued.

No politics. Great market. Hard work.

Pros

> The only company I've work in where people are evaluated fairly based on performance, eliminating petty politics > Tax is actually a pretty exciting market due to the fast-changing political environment around the world. It's a massive problem for some of the world's biggest businesses, which is fun to solve from a product perspective. > Consistently hitting performance goals = relatively stable environment for a company in this stage. No surprises outside of the normal restructuring fast-growing companies go through as they mature. > Great sales culture where people help each other but work their tails off to hit the goals

Cons

* It's really hard work. This is no 9-to-5. * The unpredictable nature of a regulatory-focused business means, while there are few internal surprises, the world around the business can change overnight.
