Pros

Work from home with flexible schedule

Cons

I bombed the interview but was hired because Company hires bodies to answer angry calls. Training was non-existent and completely on your own. I did not have recent tax experience and was not able to do returns - I was expecting some training on the system and taxes. Training focused on answering angry calls which is not what I signed up for. System was not as user friendly as a competitor.

Pros

The long term employees helpful

Cons

Basically no training, the bonus requirements are buried in the small print. Manager never responded...almost no communication
