Pros

The company has a excellecent training program. There is year round opportunity for continued education. All employees should have the high level skill set for performing taxes.

Cons

Being a tax preparer with the company is similar to working at a car dealership. All locations and employees earn base pay with incentives. Employees are extremely competitive and critical in the office.

Pros

co workers were all very nice and helped each other out, environment was clean, inviting, and definitely well organized. The flexibility of hours were great! The training was thorough and followed up on. The geographic locations of these stores made it an easy commute.

Cons

seasonal work - was expecting a much higher rate of pay -expectations of work were that of any other job plus some extra duties that really had nothing to do with what I was hired for- but with zero benefits and a very low pay scale. Hours of operation were switched around the whole time making it difficult to be able to count on hours.

Pros

Company is great educational tool, employees gain a wealth of comprehensive knowledge on corporate concepts and tax theory. Team work with other tax professionals flows well to research issues that may arise.

Cons

The pay does not equal the knowledge required for the positions. Another con, Office Managers are a train-wreck in the offices, no manageral, marketing or tax skills.
