Pros

Choice of hours and learn taxation You must study for many hours on your own time without pay. Management touts how great it is to collect unemployment - a benefit of the job!

Cons

The pay is horrible. Although you can train on your own time to prepare for mandatory continuing education, and to learn how their system works, there is no on the job training. You have to beg co-workers to help you.

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
