Adapt for Life reviews

When I began at AFL, I saw so much potential for an enthusiastic, connected clinic. I was sold a lot of wonderful pipe dreams from leadership. When the promises began to crumble, I decided it was time to go. The “leadership” at Adapt for Life is questionable at best. They been known to have tendencies towards showing abject favoritism, bullying towards other staff and general mismanagement. RBTs often go feeling unheard and feel like leadership goes unchecked. Many staff members feel targeted as a result of petty dislikes from those in or closely affiliated with the leadership team. This behavior unfortunately often draws away from what should be the focus of the job: the clients. The culture is toxic and not conducive to quality therapy sessions for clients. It is very disheartening to see and unfortunately turned me off from ABA as a whole.

The management has horrible attitudes, are completely unprofessional and they're very passive aggressive. Management plays a lot of favoritism amongst RBTs. That's why the turnover rate is so high here because there's constantly negative experiences with management. Even when you report the way management acts the VP of Operations gives them the benefit of the doubt and gaslights the RBTs. After reporting the management they nitpick and basically bully you on the job until you leave or they find a reason to fire you. I've seen it happen to so many RBTs and I haven't even been apart of the company for a year. The training for new RBTs is not good at all. The training is so inconsistent and the current RBTs are constantly training new RBTs with no compensation. Not to mention the pay, PTO, and benefits are subpar compared to other companies in Indianapolis. I have a friend that works at another center getting paid $6/hour more with the same level of experience. The schedule is very inconsistent and if your client calls in you're more than likely getting sent home. The Operations Manager constantly messes up payroll. They have been saying there will be room for growth and there never is. The environment exudes toxic positivity. They only want RBTs to be happy for the sake of the clients. They don't care about employees AT ALL. Coming to work everyday is very draining and sometimes I dread coming. All in all save your time and work somewhere else.
