Pros

The rate of pay was good, the environment was clean, benefits were fair but the upper management was severely disorganized and changed too often to be effective.

Cons

Entire focus is on profit margin and the stockholders. No one notices the compliments employees get from customers, vendors or franchisees for helping them sift through all the automation and find a real person who can either help them or direct them to someone who can. The only thing that gets noticed is the bottom line.

Pros

H R Block offers extensive training. It begins with a basic tax class that includes both lectures and hands on training. Once an individual passes the Basic Tax Prep Class, they can interview for a position at Block. Passing the course is not a guarantee of employment. After being hired, you will need to tax classes each successive that you wish to return so that you increase your tax knowledge, but also to try to stay up to date with the tax law changes.

Cons

The pay could be better, but there are ways to try to increase it over time. It is a seasonal job for which you need to re-apply ever year.
