Pros

You can work from home for now.

Cons

RUN. This company went bankrupt a few years back and haven’t completely recovered. There were mass layoffs recently in June 2020 which was referred to as “the red wedding.” People have randomly left to not be part of the company. There is little to no leadership or guidance. Everything is word of mouth and on a need-to-know basis. They will schedule meetings on your pto. Prepare to work nights and weekends for no recognition. No one has time to help or train you or give you access to anything to help you do your job. And they will let you go very quickly and no notice. Dont do this to your resumé just dont do it. RUN

Pros

The Spanaway office has since switched managers, but at the time I worked for them, it was a great environment.

I really cannot think of any cons, it was a great environment to work in!

Pros

Good basic training and general assistance in the training process.

Cons

Retail tax services at Jackson Hewitt have the problem of being scheduled by online appointment in blocks of one hour on the clients' end. As clients can make appointments as they want, you might need to deal with more complicated tax returns with a single clients and more upset clients building up in the background. For new tax preparers, it's rough to manage the customer's time and negative emotions especially in the thick of tax season, because if you need a manager or help to deal with a situation, it's not likely to be available in a timely manner.
