Bookkeeper Reviews
What is it like working as a Bookkeeper?
June 2016
Organize organize.
Bookkeeper:
Start organize and stay that way.
May 2016
To-Do-List.
Bookkeeper:
If you have multiple clients you do bookkeeping for, make sure to check you're in the correct database. And take a minute between clients' books to regroup. Most importantly: make a to-do-list every morning (or night before) and prioritize your jobs for the day, but leave time for unforeseen jobs.

Perks.
Bookkeeper:
Pros: Job flexibility for taking care of family. Available hours for certain positions.
Cons: Minimal staffing , changing job demands, fluctuating hours due to sales, few opportunities for full time positions for incoming or current employees. Unwilling to make exceptions for current long time employees.
May 2016
Bookkeeper:
Make sure that you understand why you are performing a task.
Be conscientious and detail oriented.
Follow established procedures but be prepared to offer new and more efficient ways of doing things.
Back to number one, understand why you do things before trying to change things around.
May 2016
Very Busy.
Bookkeeper:
Pros: I like that things are constantly changing. Accounts vary by sales.
Cons: The amount of pay I receive considering the amount of work I do.
May 2016
Part time.
Bookkeeper:
Pros: Part time hours for very good pay and I am a member of the church. I do it in my spare time after church on Sunday. I have a full time job that isn't bookkeeping.
Cons: That I have to attend monthly meetings.
May 2016
Brainless work.
Bookkeeper:
Pros: I like the people I work with for the most part. I like that I have learned so much I am able to use in other areas of my life.
Cons: I do not like feeling like a doormat with no authority and no say.
