Pros

The individuals were great to work with. I absolutely loved the clients I worked with, even when I would get frustrated. I know that they couldn't help it sometimes. My coworkers were also awesome. We always helped each other out whenever we could. The supervisors were also great and did everything they could to help us as much as they could within their power. I only give a 4 star rating for compensation and benefits because when I was there, the benefits were actually really good. The compensation, the actual pay, was very low, unless you got overtime, which you most likely would, but then you wouldn't have a life outside work.

Cons

The management was crooked and overbearing. They did not care for the individuals or what was best for them. Well, maybe some of them, but for the most part, the people that made the decisions, didn't care. They also didn't care about the employees and if we worked ourselves to death. At one point, myself and a coworker (not sure if they still work there or not) were the only two people working and keeping the house that we worked at full time running. Two people, covering 6 shifts, throughout the entire week, including weekends. We never had a life outside of work and basically lived at the house we worked at. I stuck it out though because I loved the people I was working with even though I was not getting paid nearly enough. At the time, and probably even now, they paid the lowest of all the DSP jobs around. What made me leave was when one of the office people lied to me and tried to gaslight me. I knew they were lying because I was in a meeting with all the office people where normally regular DSPs would not be invited, but I was for some reason, and I guess they forgot. Later on a phone call they said the exact opposite of what was said in the meeting. I didn't point out that they were lying and just started job hunting and left a week later after getting a new job. Definitely not a good place to work. They don't care if you are a decent person or not. They will take advantage of you.

Pros

-The benefits package is pretty good. You receive dental, vision, and medical after your 90 day probation is over. -As an employee you have access to join the union

Cons

-Management needs a new direction and leadership! Directives for staff are consistently changed weekly. -Management has poor site control. Client safety and staff safety are not prioritized. - Retention rate is very low as staff are consistently leaving due to burnt out from admin demands, no upward mobility after receiving license as a clinician, and high caseloads. -No existence of work/life balance -Microagressions towards POC staff -If you are a new graduate or newer clinician do not work here as this company does not want to help with employee growth or strengthening ones skills but instead are more concerned about profiting off clientele, and creating burnt out for staff without incentives or clinical support. -Low wage. Licensed or non-licensed, wages are the same.

Pros

Clients are good when they show up- literally the only good thing. And they paid for my Rbt training (but wouldn’t certify me)

Cons

Poor ABA practices. Literally lost money driving to clients who were no-shows and Merakey didn’t pay me for my time and made me document (unpaid!) that I attempted to contact the client and that they weren’t there. They pay lower than any company locally, and the only reason I wanted to stay with them at all das because I want to go into this field full time after college but I quickly learned that there are much better places.
