Good intentions, but poor leadership and organization makes it unpleasant to work - RBT Verbal Beginnings Employee Review

Pros

Most employees where positive and are motivated, works hard to train staff, and pay is competitive.

Cons

Dishonest about hours and job placements. Scheduling is unprofessional and very unorganized, often showed up to appointments to find that that the family had canceled and called my supervisor who "forgot" to contact me. Shifts are always changing, and it's not well communicated, so you often drive out to a home only to find the family canceled. I even showed up for a shift once and found another staff person working my shift.

Verbal Beginnings Response

We’re sorry to hear your experience at Verbal Beginnings felt disorganized. Thanks to employee feedback about scheduling, we created a new position (promoting from within) to oversee everything schedule and attendance-related. We also made changes to scheduling for both clients and clinicians to prevent the kind of problems you mentioned. Please feel free to contact us to hear more about how we have improved our systems for Therapists and BCBAs, and thank you for your feedback. Sincerely, Nick Chappell, co-CEO
