      Pros

      I came on as a Seasonal tax Preparer I from 2023 to March 2024. The people were nice and there was flexibility with your hours.

      Cons

      I might have stayed on longer if there was more work, or more training was provided. I think the company really failed to train and assist me in this position. Somehow the other senior tax prepares were suppose to do this while they usually had their jobs to do. There was no real dedicated time to train me, or give me some way to help to drum up work. They were struggling to find something for me to do and not because I lack initiative. I was continuously asking if anybody needed help.

      Pros

      Flexible availability. Path for promotion is obvious and quantified.

      Cons

      Bonus/commission it is based on level and sales so is low in states without a state tax form. Hourly wage comes out of bonus. Pressure to sell items that don't add to your commission. They push customer surveys but you can be penalized if someone complains about the company, price, amount of emails etc even though you have no control. Some employees are frustratingly low quality and you will spend time helping or fixing their mistakes time that works against your commission. You are expected to answer phones, make appointments, scan, print, take money, help new comers all while maximizing returns. If you take over someone's client and find a mistake you are expected to work against your commission to file amendments peace of mind claims etc.
