Pros

Great communication within this department. Very flexible shifts to choose from. Call metrics are very simple and straightforward.

Cons

It’s a hybrid role, and it’s not just sitting and doing calls. You are also in the field in your local area handling on site tech/infrastructure for local offices. Projects line up and phones take priority over offices. So you will obviously be constantly behind many deadlines with very little time to complete.

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.
