Pros

Interesting course material and great software.

Cons

The list is long. The instructor could not teach the course material and was only interested in reading off the Powerpoint slides. The hiring process was a joke - they are only interested in hiring young people and not those with professional backgrounds. H & Ro Block is a money grab - they get 15 students to take the course and only hire 3 people at low wages. Al of students dropped out for they were not given help with the material. The instructor mentioned on first day of class "I am only here till end of class." In order words, no interest in wanting others to develop etc. their income tax background. Obviously instructor was only interested in their own salary. The classroom setup needs to be greatly improved as well.

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
