Pros
* Very good money on a seasonal, hourly basis. * The match from the 401k is about 1 year. * You learn SO much getting into toher types of returns. * For the right person, it can be a good job to come back to year after year.
Cons
* The communication is non-existent from Recruiting, Onboarding and other areas of HR. Just totally horrible in merely getting ready for the season. * Tax Assistants are expected ot become experts with the software, tax codes and anything else almost immediately. If it were as easy as Management makes it to be, ore customers wouldn't even need us. * I had to develop releationeships with true tax experts outside my Lead Pod and Management Team, which COrproate does NOT love. But I can't do my job right without them. * If you're not an Enrolled Agent, CPA or Lawyer they can't offboard you fast enough at the end of the season. * Depending on where you live, there may be MUCH better opportunities after 1 -2 seasons.
