Thanks for your feedback. VBA reimburses mileage at the federal rate of $0.62 per mile, plus $15 per hour for drive time. Every effort is made to assign clients that are close to employees residences, but initial commutes are also eligible for the same reimbursement if they are lengthy in time or distance. We have a simple approval system for this. We provide a majority of our hours in public schools and follow their calendars. To be assigned these cases you generally need to arrive when the student arrives and be available until the end of the school day. You then have the option to receive paid drive time and mileage to a home client for an opportunity to work an additional 2-2.5 hours with no caps on overtime. School cases are 32-35 hours of work during daytime with little to no driving between clients, then if you are available for a home case, with paid drive time, you will have the opportunity to work 10+ additional hours per week.

Pros

This company truly supports it's workforce. They take care of them with great benefits, a caring management team, and competitive pay. They treat you with respect as a person and understand when life comes at you. Asking for time off is easy, I had never been denied time off. They never try to make you feel bad for missing work, instead offering generous incentives just for doing your job. The support system at VBA is such that if you do right by them by communicating in a timely manner, and telling the truth, they will do right by you. VBA works in schools giving you the option to take your vacation during school vacations and your weekends free. If you want, you can pile on the hours, but only if you want. If you love working with kids, working for a company who supports you and working favorable hours, don't pass up this opportunity. You won't find a company like VBA anywhere else.

Cons

The job is difficult. If you are someone who likes a challenge, this will be a big challenge. The job is intense. If you communicate to your superiors if you are struggling, they will help. This job is intimidating at first. You will be working with a unique group of individuals. Don't be afraid to ask for help. If you can get through all that, the job is intrinsically and extrinsically rewarding. Ultimately making the decision to leave as I have done is the hardest part of it all.
