Pros

The BCBA’s are passionate and kind. The families are usually welcoming and warm and it’s rewarding work.

Cons

The company expects us to provide, pay for, and prepare supplies for session. Technicians do not get paid outside of session for preparing materials. It’s also against “ethics” to ask the family to print materials for session. Also, we’re hired as part time employees and it is nearly impossible to maintain 30 hours per week to be eligible for benefits. There’s no guaranteed work because the family can cancel for any reason.

Butterfly Effects Response

Hello, I am sorry to hear you had a negative Butterfly Effects experience. Just to clarify: 1) The Behavior Technicians are the important people in the company. We reimburse all materials and mail pre-made educational materials upon request. 2) We supply PPE such as face covers. We have purchased and distributed hundreds of face covers to our staff and provided a $10 PPE stipend to each employee. You should have never had to purchase your own face over. Our COVID-19 mitigation strategies are best in the industry. 3) BE’s Behavior Technician rates are above the industry standard. Unfortunately, the reimbursements rates we receive this type of service are not exceptionally high. Again, I am sorry you had a negative experience. I dedicated to improving the Butterfly Effects experience and can be reached at steve.woolf@butterflyeffects.com. Dr. Steve Woolf
