Not great

Recommend

Pros

They will hire anyone because they can't keep a staff.

Cons

Cannot work all year, required to take two months off. Pay is small for the amount of work required. Training is a joke. Everything is taught in a class setting and then you are thrown in where most situations do not relate to the "class" training.

Pros

Friendly work environment, not everyone knows the answers at first so it's okay to ask other Tax Professionals at your job

Cons

Training is extremly boring with no real teacher to teach you, you teach yourself tax theories and familiarize yourself with tax laws.
