Pros

The supervisors and coworkers are amazing. The parents and the children are for the most part what makes the job fun.

Cons

The pay is horrible. Many of the people working in the field are bachelor's level and psychology majors. The minimum rate for RBT certified workers is $20/hr, despite the job posting claiming $25 for RBT holders. The bonuses (2, $500 bonuses) are only paid out after 6/12 months of services if you weren't trained and held an RBT before joining ACES. Even after completing certification, the company will keep you at a lower rate of pay. Many coworkers will tell you the only way to increase you pay is to switch companies. The benefits are only paid out if you are able to maintain 30+ hour weeks - which is impossible with many client cancellations (unless you have amazing availability). Many RBT's have two jobs for this reason.

Pros

barely any pros. the kiddos themselves and the relationships with them you build.

Cons

RUN. cash cow private equity company. They used to be a great company until as of late. Now it’s all about chasing the money . They fired an entire team just to use AI for scheduling that doesn’t know what a “schedule” or “availability /hours available” are. and if you don’t just say yes to the 1 hour warning text from an AI bot? good luck not getting written up and talked down to. The force you to use your personal phone and blow it up through the entire day , but don’t pay a phone stipend or provide a work phone. turn over is insane to the point “new” RBT’s don’t even know who the clinic director is and thinks they are a fellow RBT. most gossip and clique together and if you don’t belong within that- good luck getting any support or guidance.
