Pros

I learned tons at H&R Block. The Leads and Seniors are very intelligent, super helpful, and the teams are reasonably sized with mostly reasonable workloads.

Cons

They will let you work exactly as much as you want to work, to the point where it becomes detrimental. Some people are working way more than 50 hours a week, and management won't hire enough to prevent the leads and Seniors from feeling like they have to put in that many hours. Pay is just barely acceptable.

Pros

If you get in the right office you can have amazing coworkers and can learn so much. You can gain a ton of experience and knowledge if you are willing to work and collaborate with other preparers. Training is robust and is there for you to utilize and work your way up to higher salary. The potential to earn a full years salary working for half the year once trained up to a higher level and build your book of business.

Cons

Communication is often not the best and in the offseason you are off boarded or get reduced salary and only work a day or two a week
