Beacon is proud to offer flexible scheduling to support our staff and the families we serve. In the past year, we’ve implemented changes to improve the pay scale and benefits for our staff. Cancellations are an unfortunate challenge that all ABA agencies experience, and Beacon works closely with families to minimize the unpredictability and reschedule cancellations when necessary. We understand that inconsistencies in hours can be difficult and have added paid time off and staffing resources for rescheduling appointments when families must cancel due to child illness, etc. We invite you to reach out to us at support@beaconservices.org to further discuss your comments.

Lots of travel

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible schedule and PTO/sick time.

Cons

You do not get an actual break. Company is understaffed, in my interview I was told there would be room for growth, which is not true unless you join their Masters program. You do not get payed for any administrative work you do at home an ABT such as phone calls with supervisors, or driving to office for supplies, sending emails etc.

Beacon honors labor laws which require a 30-minute break without travel for staff who work six or more hours. We recognize and value the time that our team put into supporting Beacon children and families, as staff who participate in outside of session administrative work receive an elevated direct service hourly rate. For staff striving to earn a promotion from an Associate Behavior Therapist to a Behavior Therapist, a Master’s Degree is not required. We appreciate your feedback and invite you to reach out to us at support@beaconservices.org as we aim to ensure a positive experience for all our staff members.
