Vantaggi

Excellent training program for aspiring tax professionals. Flexible hours. Opportunity to advance business/career with additional training courses if you stay with the company long and want to earn some part time income. Some superstars who work there but the average employee is a retiree or stay at home parent looking to ear

Svantaggi

H&R Block is overrated. There are some superstars who work there but the average employee is a retiree or stay at home parent looking to earn extra income. For the most part most people dont really know what they're doing. It's just typing in basic data into their system. They do a good job marketing their services but for the most part preparers take the basic training course and are thrown into the fire. Most people go to H&R Block expecting a CPA type professional when a lot of the time it isn't the case. My salary started at $9/hour and was peanuts. The commission structure doesn't provide huge incentive for employees to perform. The payment structure for their services are outrageous. There were too many times where struggling families had to pay an arm and a leg for a simple earned income credit. Definitely not worth it. Go to a local CPA to get your taxes done where the fees are fair.

Vantaggi

H&R Block provides thorough training, and employees should expect to study continuously throughout the season. The training is valuable and helps build a strong understanding of tax preparation. There are opportunities to "level up," and advancing through the certification levels can lead to higher pay over time. Management is approachable and readily available when assistance is needed.

Svantaggi

The position is seasonal, and the starting pay is $12 per hour. During peak tax season, employees may work very long hours—sometimes up to 10 hours a day, 6 to 7 days a week—which can be physically and mentally exhausting. In my first month, I also found that some of the staff were not especially welcoming, which made the initial adjustment more challenging.
