BlueSprig reviews

- Pay - PTO, or lack thereof - No work/life balance, centers are open 8-6pm and expect you to be available from 7-6:30pm - I worked 50+ hours a week average, yet was penalized for all the needed overtime - Staff are always having their hours cut unexpectedly. We had a power outage and many staff were not compensated for showing to work or lost 8 hours of pay. If clients cancelled or failed to show, good luck. - Understaffed, no one to cover for employees out sick or vacations. - As an operations assistant I was: cleaning (vomit, urine, after children AND adults), repairing (if I put in a repair request would get reprimanded so I personally fixed toilets, sinks, doors, printers, computers, lighting etc.), scheduling (staff, tours, interviews), contacting families, doing intake, recruiting, stocking, ordering inventory, planning events, training. I was paid $17/hour for doing what could be 4 separate positions.

Don't believe what you see on all the social media and all of the shiny, caring responses to negative reviews. BlueSprig is great at representing themselves in a very positive way but it absolutely does not trickle down to the people really doing the work. I truly believe that the people at the top of the chain believe they are doing well and think they are supporting staff, families, and "changing the lives of people with autism". In reality they are constantly changing processes, procedures, and expectations in a way that makes the lives of clinicians actually implementing the changes a living hell. They do not clearly communicate their expectations and do not provide the necessary supports to implement quality ABA. The actions of the corporate BlueSprig do not align with any of their values, even though they talk about their values with every chance they get. All of the pretty swag and social media posts do not make up for burning out BCBAs and RBTs so badly that they decide to leave the field. They have stopped doing performance review for clinical staff, have continually increased billable expectations for BCBAs, do not guarantee full time hours for RBTs, and the poor Operational Managers get no support or love from management.
