Pros

It a great company to learn the tax laws, and the staff employed are very helpful and have lots of knowledge.

Cons

Even if you get certified to the highest tax pro position,(enrolled agent), after a few years you start to incur a wage reduction of 20% every year. Example 10.00 * .20 = 8.00 and the following year take that new wage of 8.00 and reduce it by another 20%. I was making 22.00 per hr in 2010 five years later and i have to beg for 7.25. HR Block don't care who you are or how much you know, unless you increase you client growth by 20% you will take a pay cut every year of 20% and you must complete at least 150 tax returns, good luck with that since most offices only have 700 clients and there are 10-20 tax pros in each office.

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
