Pros

Takes only 3 months to prepare for this job and they hire everyone who passes their test. It works really well for people who are otherwise busy with something else. Retired people who want seasonal employment may find this to be a good match, as the job can be from January to Mid-April and then you are free to leave.

Cons

Company is greedy overall. It saves pennies on its employees. They don't offer benefits to seasonal employees.

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
