Pros

I joined the AAC team in the beginning of 2023 as a therapist after an unpleasant, year long experience with another clinic in Atlanta. Coming from California where clinics aren’t as prevalent as in Georgia, my perception of ABA therapy in the South had become very misconstrued. After a year of dealing with disorganization, avaricious leadership and high turnover rates at my previous clinic, I was presented with an offer from AAC to join their team. Fast forward 5 months and I can confidently say I made an excellent choice joining the AAC team. Our CM Reana has been extremely kind, helpful and flexible. I have never felt uncomfortable asking Reana questions or bringing up concerns, she’s been very transparent and fair with all matters. Our BCBA Chary has been nothing but sweet and patient, working alongside her has been effortless. Chary’s willingness to collaborate and true interest in other’s opinions and suggestions has been very refreshing. Our BCBA Nick has been super hands on and helpful with program related questions. I always feel supported and confident during sessions with Nick’s informative and effective guidance. Coming to work shouldn’t be a drag and working with AAC it has been the complete opposite. I love my team and kiddos!

Cons

Kids transfer out at 6, it’s so hard not to get attached!

Pros

Big, fun and beautiful center!

Cons

The company operates in a way that feels far more focused on protecting itself than supporting either its clients or employees. Staff are required to submit a 4-week notice in order to receive their earned PTO payout, yet employees often feel pressured or pushed out before that payout can happen. There is a significant lack of client-centered care, with decisions appearing to prioritize company policies and profits over the actual needs of clients and direct staff. Support from leadership, especially CDs and some newer BCBAs, is inconsistent and often inadequate, leaving RBTs feeling unsupported and overwhelmed. Employees are also not compensated for downtime between sessions, despite many other ABA companies offering clock-in/clock-out systems that fairly pay staff for their time. Burnout is extremely common due to constant policy changes, unrealistic expectations, and a general lack of appreciation or care for RBT well-being. New rules seem to appear weekly with little communication or consistency, creating a stressful and unstable work environment.
