Pros

Autism Learning Partner (formally Pacific Child & Family Associates) provides ABA services to families across several states. I'm also receiving a gift card to fill out this review! Big pro!

Cons

This company has rebranded itself as Autism Learning Partners to try to escape its awful reviews from its original name, Pacific Child & Family Associates. I've never worked for an ABA company that has the most unethical practices. I do not recommend this company to behavior therapists or BCBAs. BCBAs: look at your code of ethics - they come first and foremost! Unfortunately a bad company is a bad company and no matter the amount of Starbucks cards or flashy e-mails that we have turned a new leaf is going to change that. The new clinical management does not care about the DSPs or supervisors. Punishment and disciplinary action is at an all-time high. This is an ABA company. Do they not know that you should use punishment as a last resort? I can speak for many of my co-workers, we miss everyone who left and the previous person in charge of the office.

Pros

I have been working since Feb 2016, it's flexible to my schedule. Even though it's part time I can still bring home a decent pay check. Working with children make its a fulfilling experience.

Cons

Wish it was a full time job.

New Management

Pros

I have worked at ALP (formerly CLC, AIS, PCFA, and ACT) for many years now and am enjoying this new management team. They are realistic and set attainable goals for all of their employees. They are working hard to not only to make a healthy business, but also working toward providing a lot of staff development across the different positions. There is value placed in clinical expertise and personal growth.

Cons

There is currently a high billable quota required that often puts stress on BCBAs and mid-level supervisors which results in high caseload counts for staff. The DSPs are mostly part time and have a high turn over rate which makes for a lot of entry level training happening. This can be frustrating for not only staff, but also families. I understand that they are related to the change in the management and fixing the business, but the growing pains are real.
