Pros

Semi-flexible schedule, some cool people, meaningful work.

Cons

Inconsistent hours, sometimes as low as 8 hours a week. Rude and uninterested trainers, a competitive environment, and unhelpful peers when you're new. Low pay for the work you'll be doing. Sink or swim, that's probably why they're always hiring.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found the work meaningful, appreciated some flexibility in scheduling, and had positive relationships with members of the team. We’re sorry to hear that your experience has also included inconsistent hours, concerns about pay, and feeling unsupported during training and onboarding. No team member should feel like they are left to “sink or swim,” especially in a role that requires strong support, collaboration, and care. We take this feedback seriously. We know that investing in our team members through clearer training, stronger peer support, consistent communication, and sustainable staffing practices is essential to reducing burnout and creating a better experience for both staff and clients. Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found leadership supportive, especially when navigating complex cases, and that the ongoing training opportunities were valuable during your time at Soar. We also understand that a fast-paced environment with frequent change can be challenging. As Soar continues to grow and improve how we serve children and families, we know it is important to support team members through change with clear communication, thoughtful planning, and strong leadership presence. We appreciate the time you spent with Soar and are grateful for the care you provided to the children and families we serve.

Pros

Flexibility in the team was nice (no longer an option), diverse clients, integrated health model, iPads, play-based, ESDM, good training/hiring model.

Cons

Big corporation in autism care! Corporations are a business at the end of the day, and care can get diluted.
