Pros

Good office atmosphere between co-workers. It varies between offices, but overall the company does a decent job at hiring good people. Fluctuates from fast to slow-paced throughout the week, so it's never monotonous. The company allows for a flexible schedule, which is perfect for students.

Cons

Clients can come in or call already upset (usually because of the IRS) and blame H&R Block for their problems. As a CSC it is your duty to be the front representation of the company, so you take the brunt of client complaints. As the face of the company, it is important to never look bored or like you have nothing to do, which can be difficult when the day becomes slow. In my experience my manager would get upset with me for having nothing to do, even after restocking the entire office.

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
