Pros

Butterfly Effects is the first ABA company that I have worked for that I have no doubt is making ethical decisions and putting the client needs first. The company has made many changes over the last several years and continues to make strides in compensation and benefits. The company has many opportunities for advancement and opportunities for clinicians interested in areas other than clinical management including training, marketing and management.

Cons

In home services is a setting for individuals who are comfortable with flexibility and ever changing schedules.

Thank you for your feedback. In many aspects of health care, home service providers hire only seasoned team members because of the independence and autonomy associated with the provision of care in the home setting. In ABA therapy, we do not have such a luxury as the industry is too new and the resources quite limited. I know that it is our responsibility as an employer to create the support and training to integrate and advance the skills and professionalism of each team member we hire. I hope you will join us in maturing that vision with your insight and experience in the field and with the Company.

Thank you for your feedback and touching on points that we are feverishly working to improve. While the 40-hour training is required by our payers and provides for a marketable credential that is transferable to other providers, we understand that the process can be improved and more engaging. With that said, we are in the midst of a quality improvement project to not only reduce the time of throughput from Tech application to client service hours, the project is also piloting new field trainer positions and preceptors to close the gap in communication to the remote workforce to complement our company-wide efforts. As a new team member, our Techs receive a welcome bag with start up supplies for the assigned client. We have employed a work group to provide suggestions on how to better provide for materials that are the most suitable to the individual client. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It looks like we are on the same page in identifying ways to improve the team member experience. Best wishes in your future endeavors.
