Pros

They have a great attempt at hands on training on the computer and on paper.

Cons

You are on you own to get the support you will need to succeed. Which was made worse since they forced you to go on to levels that I was not prepared for. Taking tests by google is not my idea of preparation in something so complex as the harder types of tax preparation. Plus, I would be liable for my mistakes to a too large of a degree for me to continue.

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
