Pros

I worked for a franchise owner. She was very flexible, competitive pay, and really took the time to get involved with the employees. The advancement opportunities are really good as they are employee driven so you can determine how high up the ladder you want to go.

Cons

Sometimes there is a lack of communication between managers and tax preparers. With very flexible hours, sometimes there can be issues with client files and a disruption in getting things done.

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.
