Pros

Kids were cool and seeing the kids learn and make progress was the best part about the job.

Cons

Be prepared to have completely unfair rules and to always be sick. I was sick for almost a year straight because of ABC. If a kid had COVID the policy was for them to not show up, however, if an RBT had COVID, they were expected to show up unless they had sick time or PTO, The sick time and PTO was earned, so showing up to work sick was very typical. Other than COVID, if the kids were sick they almost never went home meaning RBTs would just constantly be sick. I quit being an RBT at ABC because of the amount of trauma and gaslighting by management. For example, I was told by management to always have eyes on the kid you’re working with. Then, my BCBA would tell me to not move when the kid I was working with was clearly leaving the room and turning the corner. Be prepared for management to set you up to fail.

Pros

Benefits, PTO, and decent flexibility is some of the few positive for Action. Having upper management and leadership that actually listens to employee concerns and works toward practical solutions is probably the top pros.

Cons

Tech issues can arise more often than liked. But they are typically resolved quickly.

Pros

This is the first review I have ever written for an organization. Having been with ABC for over three years now and in our field for under a decade, I feel like I have a good grasp of our field, careers as a clinical supervisor and challenges that come with longevity in center based pediatric ABA services. My time with ABC has been full of laughter, camaraderie, learning and constant development. I have given it my all and the company has reciprocated. Through thick and thin, changes in the organization and evolution of my current role, I have been treated with respect and fairness. There is transparency, awareness and most importantly, humility to acknowledge missteps and correct them.

Cons

The role is draining. You are constantly trying to appease junior clinicians, therapists and families. After doing it for a few years, you feel the fatigue. What gets me energized is spending time with other clinicians and celebrating them. I look forward to summits and gatherings where we can put the day to day aside for a moment and acknowledge and recognize each other.
