Pros

Working directly with clients and families can be meaningful, and there are some staff at the front line who genuinely care and do the right thing.

Cons

For over 4+ years, I observed and experienced a center culture in which professionalism and compassion were inconsistent, and serious concerns were minimized rather than addressed. Staff burnout is high, favoritism is common, and employees do not feel psychologically safe raising issues, fearing retaliation or being ignored. This has sent a clear message: it’s safer to stay quiet than to advocate for ethical standards or common decency. This is especially troubling in a setting serving vulnerable children and families. When the environment is hostile or staff feel unsupported, it impacts the quality of care and morale.

Pros

Benefits, PTO, and decent flexibility is some of the few positive for Action. Having upper management and leadership that actually listens to employee concerns and works toward practical solutions is probably the top pros.

Cons

Tech issues can arise more often than liked. But they are typically resolved quickly.

Pros

This is the first review I have ever written for an organization. Having been with ABC for over three years now and in our field for under a decade, I feel like I have a good grasp of our field, careers as a clinical supervisor and challenges that come with longevity in center based pediatric ABA services. My time with ABC has been full of laughter, camaraderie, learning and constant development. I have given it my all and the company has reciprocated. Through thick and thin, changes in the organization and evolution of my current role, I have been treated with respect and fairness. There is transparency, awareness and most importantly, humility to acknowledge missteps and correct them.

Cons

The role is draining. You are constantly trying to appease junior clinicians, therapists and families. After doing it for a few years, you feel the fatigue. What gets me energized is spending time with other clinicians and celebrating them. I look forward to summits and gatherings where we can put the day to day aside for a moment and acknowledge and recognize each other.
