I'm sure it would've been an okay job - Client Service Coordinator H&R Block Employee Review

Pros

There were rushes and lulls. Nothing too extreme in the workload. If you could make all of your calls at the top of your shift you stood a good chance of coasting the last half of your shift and only needing to answer calls/questions. You got to learn a lot about taxes and how to properly direct clients if the tax pros were busy.

Cons

The Tax Pros depend (!!!) on the amount of clients they take per tax season, their bonuses at the end of the tax season reflected how many clients they saw/completed. They do not like the idea that you may want to jeopardize that number for them, They tend to take it personally when they lose a client and you can be the first blamed for the loss. BC of the high turnover for Client Service Coordinator (receptionist) I can't guarantee that they'll be nice to you at first. Trust issues, maybe?

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.
