Leadership disconnect and favoritism undermine an otherwise caring fie
Pros
1. The kids are great—easily the best part of the job 2. RBTs are some of the most hardworking and undervalued people in the company 3. Occasional lunches (inconsistent but appreciated) 4. Dress-up/theme days if that matters to you 5. Decent place to get initial ABA experience before moving on
Cons
1. Corporate leadership (including operations and executive leadership) feels disconnected and ineffective in supporting clinic-level staff 2. Pay is below market across all roles (RBTs, BCBAs, and management) compared to other ABA companies in the area 3. Advancement is heavily influenced by favoritism rather than performance 4. If you’re not part of leadership’s “inner circle,” growth opportunities are extremely limited 5. High turnover across all levels, despite claims of strong tenure 6. Work-life balance is poor for most roles outside of corporate 7. Minimal support for frontline staff—expect to operate without consistent guidance 8. Culture can feel political and exclusionary, which pushes people out quickly.
