Pros

Great opportunity to learn more about tax laws. Provides opportunity to put apply new educational experiences. Builds client base. Decent pay. Teamwork is good. Advancement in pay is based on learning tax laws and proving that knowledge base.

Cons

Only seasonal work. Would work for them all year if the opportunity was available but it is based on supply and demand. April 15 is the end of the tax season. Few people try to file after that date, thus the supply and demand decreases dramatically.

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.
