  4. When you train tax prep people for a couple of months, pay them low wages and then charge customers $400 to do a simple return you might lose business.

  6. A company that should be gone from the KC landscape. Shitty management, terrible treatment of employees and a culture that would make a man with morals or values puke. Absolute predictors when it comes to poor folk. A broken mess.

  10. You nailed it, I think H&R block would rather be intuit
    Let's look ten years from now and see how their
    self prepared software is doing. They could care less about their tax preparers. Horrible company to work for, ripe for the taking of their market share. They now target the computer illiterate and take advantage of their vulnerability. How can a company without morals prepare taxes correctly and price fairly. They are worse than Walmart.
