Pros

H&R Block is flexible in hours worked and at least in Billerica appreciated for our skill. The physical plant is reasonably well designed and contains a normal amount of amenities. Layoffs have been so far avoided during the downturn. The employees in general are good both at what they do and as people in general.

Cons

Reorgs occur at a blinding pace and leave everyone disoriented. There seems to be issues with retaining qualified people. There are roadblocks to getting information from the trenches to higher in the organization. Best practices often are not followed.

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
