-Working with the kids -BCBAs are helpful
Cons
-Kids are consistently left under the supervision of employees unfamiliar with each client’s case as well as new hires with no prior ABA experience -Employees are quitting nearly every day, causing schedules to change every hour of the day -Staff are inadequately trained on safety procedures, or not at all -Entry level employees are thrown into the job with barely any training -Some therapists do not treat clients with any sense of dignity, reports to superiors aren’t followed up on due to low staffing -Entry level employees are left feeling unsupported by their team/superiors, even if they have prior experience in this field of work -Upper level staff do nothing to help when you’re having problems besides saying “we’re here for you” -Coworkers on your team can occasionally watch over you and give unsolicited advice when they’re supposed to be working with their own client, leaving a child unsupervised -A work-life balance is preached by higher-ups at the company, but when you ask for help due to an unhealthy work-life balance, nothing is done or you’re retaliated against through more stressful scheduling -Therapists are paid much less here than at other ABA companies, this is why many employees leave
