Pros

Loved my clients and I had great supervisors but I rarely had a chance to talk to them because of their heavy caseload. I can say the BCBAs are very knowledgeable and helpful. I had nothing but nice supervisors, none of them gave me problems.

Cons

For one, the pay is ridiculously lower than other companies. They offer no benefits (no 401k, no medical, dental or vision insurance) for BTs and RBTs even if you are full time! When a client cancels you are not paid for the money you have loss. COVID-19 protocols are super lax. BCBAs are able to stay at home and do tele health while techs have to continue-to do in home sessions. You don’t really talk to any of your coworkers. Only your supervisors. It is a very lonely position. They do recognize holidays but you aren’t paid for them.
