Underpaid, undervalued, & under trained - this is not the company for you - Registered Behavior Technician Autism Learning Partners Employee Review

-the pay is awful -employees are not valued in the slightest -lots of miscommunication between supervisors -some supervisors are disconnected from the children and push you to get results, even when a child is having a bad day or it is harming the overall progress, they will continue to pressure you into collecting better statistics instead of properly caring for a child -not a whole lot of training-- you kind of just get thrown into having clients with lots of terminology and are expected to know exactly what to do. The training consists of classes and textbook information but no real on the job training which I feel is imperative for a job like this where you are working with children in general, let alone children with autism -the job itself is extremely draining.. emotionally, mentally, and even physically. -you will get hit, kicked, or bit by a client (sometimes all 3) and be expected not to react or get any kind of help/relief from supervisors because "it's just part of the job". It can be extremely dangerous and there is not any hazardous pay available -they promise growth within the company but they don't mention that that is contingent on your supervisors filling out progress forms for you... if they even do it at all. My supervisors did not fill these forms out accordingly and I was not aware that it wasn't being done until months after the fact
