Pros

*Good Benefits* *Decent Pay* *Mostly friendly people*

Cons

*Communication* Not good. They will tell you one thing and go back on their word or say "I never said that" *Career Development* Non existent. If your hired in the position your probably stuck in the position. *Management* Looks down on people like they are below them. The management team has no clue on how to handle their employees. You can be written up just by not saying hi to someone and they complain about it. They will tell you that you will be promoted and then take it back for no reason. *Two face managers* No need for explanation *Entitled* Program specialists, Coordinators and Directors feel entitled. If it's something they don't like they need it taken care of right away and don't care how it effects their subordinates.

Pros

The kids are challenging but working with others who are passionate and care for the students' well-being and growth is inspiring and gratifying. The paid vacations are a nice perk and the masters programs are a good deal. The work the school does in general for children with autism is amazing though. The research is very helpful and this school is great for autistic children with severe behaviors.

Cons

The superiors have no idea or don't seem to remember what is like to work directly with children with difficult behaviors. They are all quick to judge and unhelpful. There isn't a transparent method for promotions but incompetent people are promoted only because the superiors favor them. The masters program is also disorganized and it is frustrating to graduate when you want because they try to extend the program long enough to force you to stay at NECC.

Pros

Benefits, tuition reimbursement, staff daycare

Cons

Terrible supervision, low wages, emphasis on ABA and not actual teaching, shifting toward filling positions with less experienced people to get away with paying less.
