Pros

Very supportive and welcoming environment! FirstSteps makes it a priority to act ethically and in the best interest of the kids. Each office has a center so there is direct and consistent access to your colleagues to bounce ideas off of. All around skilled BCBAs and a great training program for new instructors.

Cons

The salaries are not as high as other agencies, which can be a deal breaker to some. But a positive, supportive, and nurturing work environment is invaluable in this line of work, which FirstSteps has in spades.

Pros

1 dollar bonus after completing ~300 clinical hours

Cons

Not much support for new RBTs; de-escalation techniques learned on the job after earning certification, rather than during training. 1 dollar bonus is advertised as something earned automatically after completing 3 months on the job, but is actually only earned after completing 300 clinical hours.
