Work your butt off and don't get rewarded.

Pros

Seeing improvements with the kids, having (few) supportive staff. The kids are the only reason I stayed as long as I did.

Cons

When you are assaulted (maybe too hard of a word choice?) by a behavioral child there is not a lot of support for the follow up by leads. Exhausting job. I came home from my first two weeks and didn't move from the couch, and I'm in decent physical shape.

Pros

I absolutely loved working with my clients at the center and teach them new skills. pretty rewarding to see them grow, learning new things, being able to communicate, etc. Training is helpful, you get sessions with all your clients and another therapist who guides you through behaviors and helps to get to know the client you are working with.

Cons

Working with children will always be exhausting. it takes specific people, passionate and caring individuals to excel at this job. Some people might get scared or cannot deal with challenging behaviors.

Pros

You gain a better understanding and knowledge of the autistic community. There are plenty of opportunities for growth as an individual and as an employee. There are many opportunities for accumulate extra hours if working at a center, including conducting in home therapy and client related activities once you demonstrate an understanding and reliability at the center.

Cons

The environment can be somewhat chaotic and stressful due to the nature of the clientele. It is as stressful as your personality allows it to be, it can be a fun and energetic environment. The best thing to do is bring a positive and flexible attitude to work and make sure you are doing your portion of the job. The training is really beneficial to this and can help to create a safe and pleasant environment for both staff and clients.
