Pros

Good way to gain experience with autistic children. The kids are great. I was able to form great relationships with kids and their parents. It is nice to know that at least the families appreciate you because the management will not appreciate you at all. There is only one behavior support aide that will come to help you.

Cons

This is the worst company I have ever worked for. The management doesn't care about you and barely cares about the kids. They are undereducated. They have no clue about even basic ABA principles. The company is supposed to help with challenging behaviors but most of the time the challenging behaviors get worse because the staff and management has no clue what they are doing.They are understaffed. The job description says 1:1 but people often have two students for weeks at a time. Some of the kids are very aggressive, therefore staff are given walkies to contact support and most of the time no one comes. The company is on a pay freeze therefore no one has gotten a raise in about 6 years. The staff doesn't care about their jobs because no disciplinary action is ever taken. Many staff there don't even care about the students. The facility is disgusting. There are holes in the wall and the ceilings. Leaking ceilings. Some rooms wreak of urine and feces.

Pros

no good reason other than droning your self off for a very bad pay, 5.00$ per five hour shift. and they expect us to live on it

Cons

if they keep you to long your skills will deteriorate. And your hopes and dreams go down the tube. no respect for talent to them your equally disadvantaged compared to the severe autistic client worker
