Pros

The CEO was kind, approachable, and seemed genuinely invested in the well-being of employees. The mission of the company is meaningful, and there are people there who care about the work.

Cons

My experience was severely impacted by the HR manager at the time. She was pleasant during the first few days, but her attitude shifted quickly, becoming unprofessional, impatient, and at times aggressive. There was little to no training. I was handed an SOP that was incomplete, and expected to pick up systems and procedures without explanation. When I asked for help, I was met with sighs, eye rolls, and a condescending tone, which created a hostile work environment. As a new hire, it felt unsafe and unsupportive, ultimately leading to my decision to leave.

Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear your positive feedback about our CEO and team members. Everyone—especially at the top of our organization—genuinely cares and is compassionate about the work we do and the services we provide to our clients and their families. Regarding your concerns about the HR Manager at the time, we're sorry to hear that your experience was less than positive. As you rightly pointed out, HR should be a place of support and professionalism—especially for new hires. We truly wish these concerns had been brought to the attention of other members of senior management while you were with us, so we could have addressed them appropriately. Since then, our current HR team and new HR Manager has implemented structured processes, detailed SOPs, and a comprehensive training program designed to ensure that new hires are fully supported and set up for success from day one. We sincerely regret that your experience did not reflect the standards we strive to uphold. Thank you again for sharing your feedback. We wish you continued success in your career and all the best in your future endeavors.

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.

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.

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.
