Pros

-I had a flexible schedule for the most part, except for when it got busy. My home life and grades plummeted and my other job started giving me more stress than usual. I guess that's what I get for attempting to work 70 hours a week. -A few of my co-workers were very nice to me.

Cons

-Pay was much lower than I expected, but being a college student I thought this would look great on my resume. -The interview was unprofessional, they didn't even ask me any questions. Honestly, they hired me because I looked professional. -There was little to no contact, my office manager gave my hours to another girl one week because she was a favorite, and didn't text me back for two weeks to ask me to come back. I'm still in the process of wondering if I should even come back. I do have another job to fall back on. -Some of the tax pros were very nice and sweet, but there were a few in my office who berated me until I was reduced to tears. I made a mistake with scheduling once. I apologized to the lady who I worked with because this is my first year doing this and I genuinely felt guilty. I kept saying how sorry I was and acknowledged the fact that I had done wrong and she got mad at me in front of clients. She couldn't forgive me. She always gave me the cold shoulder before this incident too.

Pros

I have worked for block for 5 years now and have not ever once regret going back. It's an awesome company to work for and the environment is almost like family because there is so much teamwork involved. We succeed together! Excellent pay!

Cons

Tax season is rough I call it 4 months of crazy! But the reward and feeling accomplished after that is so worth it. We squeeze one year into 4 months it's pretty rough.
