Pros

You get to connect with some really awesome kids and make a difference in their lives.

Cons

I stayed at this job for less than 4 months because I felt to undervalued. I tried to have open communication with my supervisors from the beginning about my availability (I had another job as well) and my concerns with my schedule and drive time. I talked with her several times yet when my schedule came out it was still the exact opposite of what I had asked for with my other job. I was driving so far and being worked so hard between jobs I quit this one because I was making less money here than I was serving in a restaurant. I continually emailed my supervisor to try to work out a solution but I did not get a single reply until I told them I was quitting. Then they were willing to discuss solutions, but, it was too little too late. I was heartbroken to leave because I had bonded with my families but after realizing how the BTs are treated here and multiple failed attempts to simply speak to my supervisor I knew I had to. I do not like leaving anywhere on bad terms so I even tried to reach out to my supervisor after I left to simply say thank you for the opportunity and ask some advice but, you guessed it. No reply. If you are a person who values communication with your higher ups or has a lot of questions about instructions/ the job, the company isn’t for you.

Pros

Flexibility. woman-led field. frequent pay raises. overtime opportunities.

Cons

Clinical director lives across the country so is not as easily accessible or truly aware of staff dynamics and issues. before AST was bought out by LEARN, they did 401K matching, that's no more. No more sick time off, it's all just lumped into your PTO. Issues with staff take too long to be resolved. Depending on the BCBA you get placed with, you'll either have lots of great support or none at all.
