Pros

social skills groups are available for clients

Cons

if you are new to ABA (entry level job), my experience was that the initial training was not enough to know how to do your job. It seems as if you are thrown into working with clients without the knowledge, training, and safeguards to do so. Seems like they are doing this to spend as little money as possible on training and make sure they can get money from clients ASAP even if services provided are not good. Supervisors and case managers are sent out to train you for when you start new cases, but their 2 overlaps are sometimes not enough to learn about a client and then they are too busy managing their crazy caseloads to help everyone in need. They do have ongoing optional trainings that are very specific each month, but I did not think this was enough when initially starting the job as a behavior therapist. It does seem like they are trying to improve, like getting more activities for the clinic and making client information sheets, but this is not enough

Thank you so much for your feedback! Creative Solutions is constantly striving to improve our training and company as a whole. We believe that our current training provides you with all the information you need to know before entering the field. Your overlap training with your supervisors, serves as an introduction to your clients, their programs, and their goals. We completely understand that being on your own in the beginning may feel intimidating, however in the beginning your focus should be building rapport/relationships with your clients! During your sessions and even outside of your sessions, you always have streamlined communication to your clinical team. We are here to support you with any questions or concerns you have, and the HR department is also more than happy to help if you feel as if you are not receiving the support that you need.

Pros

- Great management! They are very supportive when you are not feeling well or are having a hard time with clients! - It is pretty easy to move up in the career ladder as long as you are dedicated. The BCBAs are willing to help out!

Cons

- Reroutes do get difficult sometimes. When your client cancels, there may be a chance you do not earn hours since you may not get reroutes.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're glad to hear you feel supported by our management team and are finding opportunities for growth. We truly value your dedication and contributions. We understand that reroutes can be challenging, especially when cancellations happen on short notice. While it can be difficult to reroute you to a new client under those circumstances, please know that we do everything possible to help mitigate the impact. We also encourage you to stay communicative with your managers and the scheduling team—especially if a client shows a pattern of cancellations—so we can provide the best possible support. Thanks again for being a valued member of the CSH team!

Pros

Higher wages than most other ABA companies.

Cons

Ridiculously large caseloads. They hired basically anyone and then didn’t adequately train them. This led to really poor BT performance. HR was very unprofessional and made people constantly scared for their jobs. There was really only one BCBA who would come up occasionally for supervision (she was great) but otherwise there weren’t any competent BCBAs providing supervision. The turnover at the company was worse than others, which is saying something.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. We do want to address a number of statements in this review, as they don’t accurately reflect how our organization operates or what most of our team experiences. Caseloads are not ridiculously large as described. They are intentionally built to support our Case Managers in maintaining full-time schedules. We take factors such as cancellations and client availability into account to ensure staff have consistent hours to pull from. Caseloads are also reviewed regularly and adjusted as needed to support our team while maintaining a high standard of care for our clients. In the same way, the comment about training is not consistent with our process. Behavior Technicians go through structured onboarding and receive ongoing support and supervision to help them succeed in their roles. The claim that there was only one BCBA providing supervision is also not accurate. We have multiple qualified BCBAs who are actively involved in supervision, case oversight, and supporting staff on a regular basis. We also take pride in maintaining a professional and supportive workplace. The characterization of HR as unprofessional or creating fear does not reflect our approach. Our goal is always to communicate clearly, support employees, and create a stable work environment. Regarding hiring and turnover, we maintain hiring standards and work hard to build and retain a strong team. While turnover can happen in this field, the way it’s described here is not representative of our overall organization. Finally, our expansion into the Bay Area was driven by the need for services, not for the reasons suggested in this review. We expanded thoughtfully and have continued investing in the people and structure needed to support both our staff and the families we serve. We understand that not every individual experience is the same, but it’s important to clarify that several of the points raised here are not an accurate portrayal of our company. We remain focused on continuous improvement and providing a positive environment for both employees and clients.
