We bet you're wondering, "But what's in it for me?" Which is a perfectly normal thing to wonder before joining a new employer. Luckily, we're so proud of our benefits that we'd shout them from the top of the Washington Monument if they didn't ask us to stop doing that.
What really makes the IRS a great place to work is the sheer number of opportunities and ways to advance. And in addition to that, our climate of diversity, inclusion and equality. You're going to be hard pressed to find that in any other workplace.
