Pros

Great work environment! Excellent training, opportunities for advancement. You can make great money! They have flexibility in scheduling so you can have a full time jobs and still make extra money on the side.

Cons

This job is seasonal and although you can work in the off-season, you make the most money during the tax season. Your pay is also based on your performance, retention and certification. So if you work in an area with a small population,your income may not be as much as those in larger cities.

Pros

H&R Block provides thorough training, and employees should expect to study continuously throughout the season. The training is valuable and helps build a strong understanding of tax preparation. There are opportunities to "level up," and advancing through the certification levels can lead to higher pay over time. Management is approachable and readily available when assistance is needed.

Cons

The position is seasonal, and the starting pay is $12 per hour. During peak tax season, employees may work very long hours—sometimes up to 10 hours a day, 6 to 7 days a week—which can be physically and mentally exhausting. In my first month, I also found that some of the staff were not especially welcoming, which made the initial adjustment more challenging.
