Pros

As a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) at Soar Autism Center, my experience has been both rewarding and challenging, offering significant professional growth and the opportunity to make a real impact in the lives of children with autism. Below is an overview of my experience in this role. *Supportive Team Environment: From day one, I was welcomed into a team of dedicated and passionate professionals. The center provides a collaborative environment where staff, including BCBAs (Board-Certified Behavior Analysts) and other RBTs, regularly communicate and share strategies to improve client care. This has been essential in helping me develop my skills and feel supported in my work. *Comprehensive Training: The training program was thorough, equipping me with the knowledge and tools necessary to apply Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) techniques effectively. Ongoing supervision and feedback from BCBAs have been invaluable in refining my skills and gaining confidence in my work with clients. *Direct Impact on Clients' Lives: One of the most fulfilling aspects of being an RBT is seeing the progress of the children and adults I work with. Every small achievement—whether it’s learning a new skill, improving communication, or reducing challenging behaviors—feels like a victory. It’s truly rewarding to be part of their journey and to witness their growth. *Opportunities for Career Advancement: The center offers opportunities for career growth, whether through continued education or taking on more responsibilities within the organization. I feel encouraged to pursue and expand my expertise in the field of ABA. *Work-Life Balance: The schedule is generally flexible, and while there are busy times, the work-life balance is reasonable. There’s an understanding that employees need time for personal commitments, which helps to prevent burnout. *The company does several surveys and asks for our opinions. I have seen them make positive changes by listening to employees. I do not feel like I would get in trouble for voicing my opinion with the owners.

Cons

Emotional and Physical Demands: The work can be emotionally taxing, as it requires patience, empathy, and the ability to handle challenging behaviors on a daily basis. Some days can feel particularly draining, especially when working with children who may have severe or unpredictable behaviors. It requires a lot of resilience and a positive mindset. *This is a newer company, and they are still working some things out, but since I have started, I have seen the owners implement suggestions from staff.

Company is so focused on expanding to other locations and states that they let existing centers deteriorate Constant turnover, one person a week No consistent schedule even though availability changes guaranteed one Bathroom breaks are extremely limited if working with 1:1 clients Don’t take feedback from staff surveys Removed baby locks and baby gates, allowing clients to elope into office building and outside building Even when AC stops working, staff and clients are expected to stay in 90 degree rooms

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you worked alongside RBTs and clinicians who care deeply about the children and families we serve. That commitment is central to Soar’s mission. We’re sorry to hear that your experience has felt frustrating and unsupported. Concerns related to staffing stability, schedules, breaks, facility conditions, safety, and responsiveness to feedback are serious, and we understand how these issues can affect both team members and the quality of care they feel able to provide. As we continue to grow, we know that expansion cannot come at the expense of supporting our existing centers and teams. We are actively working to strengthen communication, improve center operations, and ensure staff concerns are heard and addressed. We appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback, and we encourage team members to continue raising specific concerns through their center leadership or People Team so they can be reviewed and addressed appropriately.
