Pros

If you work as a Client Service Professional, you can take the tax course in the fall for $20 which is a great resume builder

Cons

Very little pay, but that is to be expected for job. Tax Pro's will try to take advantage of your kindness and boss you around. CSP are there for the client and not the tax pros. Also, tax pro's are kind of lazy for only having to work 4 months of the year. They will act as if every client is theirs in the beginning, but as tax season progresses, they will all hide when walk-ins without appointments come in.

Pros

The facualty was very nice but the work sometimes was too overwhelming and I just was not right for the job.

Cons

The people there were not always the nicest to deal with and when I asked for help no one wanted to help me.

Pros

If your mind is set that way, preparing tax returns is a fun and challenging job. The educational opportunities are unlimited, and most of the clients are a joy.

Cons

The pay structure is terrible and gets worse every year. Management seems to think that doing something, even if it makes no sense, is preferable to doing nothing.
