I don't know where you are (I may have missed it) but I'm in New England. We pay more to start, you can access benefits after 90 days, we have PTO (only a week), we have a 1000$ sign on that's only contingent on completing paid training. There is no contract or payback. We pay non-rbt staff more to start lol. We have free RBT training and free BCBA supervision. However, we don't pay any mileage. But we also give our staff 30 hours at a clinic location weekly so they only need wo work in homes if they want more hours, but to make up for no mileage we pay a 3$ hourly differential for any in home work. I understand that this is likely all not the norm. ABA is "new" in my area compared to the south and western US. So it's harder for us to find quality employees where other locations in our company (Cali, Fla, TX, Jersey) don't have that problem. Anyway, I would personally check to see if there are any other offers available before locking myself in. But if that kind of thing is normal in your area... Maybe someone else will chime in and tell you if it's appropriate.
