I didn't think it was hard but there were several people that dropped out. The hours you work depends on the company you work for. The first office I worked in we worked 40 hours a week absolute maximum and then after "peak" was over it went down to 25 to 30 hours. We also got paid a bonus based on the value of the returns we did. The last office I worked in we worked from 40 to 60 hours or more a week and the pay was straight pay with no bonus. I made more in the first office I worked in. Both offices are independently owned franchises of the major national tax prep company.
