Pros

It's a paycheck if you need one. Typically close to home

Cons

Hours are inconstant and FT doesn't start till late January. Training is all about selling their products, making sure everyone (tax pros) are selling their products. No actual how to run the office.

Pros

Chance to utilize skills and room for advancement

Cons

I had to take the Experienced Client Care Training Course 3 times. the last time through Microsoft Teams for 8 3 hour sessions a waste of time. The software system that this company uses is too complex and duplicate. Management dictates the correct answers on practice tax returns. even if I accurately enter the data. They will not accept alternative methods to prepare returns. Local management does not communicate well. I can't wait to leave immediately and work somewhere else!
