Pros

A bar located next door was the closest to a pro for working here.

Cons

I wasn't on the job more than 10 minutes before one of the "grand dames" working there started questioning me about my familial status, then proceeded to tell me that if my now-husband and I started trying to get pregnant at that time, we could have a baby when I turned 50 (I was going on 48 years old at the time), and retire when the child graduated from high school. Also, the manager at the time told me that once I had a clientele list like that woman and one other did, I would be a valuable employee who could dictate my availability and do what I wanted.

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
