Pros

HR Block provides a lot of tools for you to obtain the necessary information to do your job. You can learn a lot from HR Block if you want to spend the time and energy to utilize the tools provided you. The employees return year after year. It is a pleasant place to work.

Cons

HR Block expects a lot of associates and managers alike; unfortunately the pay is not adequate for the amount of work you do.

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.
