“I have supportive, nice, knowledgeable co-workers. If you need help with a return, you will get it from your co-workers. I get lots of experience with all types of returns and clients. Clients return and value my expertise and the service they receive; that is rewarding. My schedule is flexible so that if I have a need for time off, that can be arranged. The management values the staff and treats us fairly. Free continuing education through the Company.”

Ann Bernton, L.T.C.

“I began working for Pacific Northwest Tax Service in 2003, after taking the 80-hour Basic Tax School they offered. In 2005, I decided I wanted to prepare taxes for a living and Pacific Northwest Tax Service was where I wanted to do it! I have not regretted my decision. The company is upbeat and professional with a team atmosphere. Lots of laughter and great times. The owners respect and value their employees. I love going to work! Few people can say that about their jobs!”

SanDee Tharp, L.T.C.

"The things that drive me to return each tax season to Pacific Northwest Tax Service is the great collaborative work environment I'm privileged to share with my co-workers and the diversity of clientele I get to serve.  Every client and every return are unique in some way.  As a tax preparer I enjoy meeting face to face with people of all walks of life and income levels and helping them with their returns.  The diversity of the people is interesting and the variety of the work is challenging yet very rewarding.  The work environment is professional, but relaxed and friendly like all the folks who work there.  Tax law is very broad and encompasses more knowledge than almost any one person can master, yet invariably there is a co-worker with experience and a willingness to help for every tax dilemma you may encounter."
