Pros

Exposure to the ABA networks and your work is rarely dull. There are moments where I've been proud of my work within the company.

Cons

You will be overworked with little incentive. Management will likely place you where there is a spot to fill without your consent or even prior knowledge of the given environment. This means that you will be placed on a team where the patients that you will be working with have extremely high rates of maladaptive behavior. This would be acceptable as it is part of the caregiving responsibility. However, do not expect frequent or premeditated support from management. Do not expect consistent communication. Do not expect management to allow time to reconstruct guidelines or protocol or negotiate levels of care given to the patients that demand more attention that would certainly drive a pay increase. Unless you are thinking to build some credibility and network to eventually grow out of the RBT position, please consider respecting yourself enough to look elsewhere for work.

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.
