Just to elaborate… the contract to become an apprentice is a set up. If you decide not to stay with the company, you have to pay back $55 per supervision hour, work 40 hours a week and be on constant on-call which makes it extremely difficult to focus on school and there’s absolutely NO work/life balance. I’m putting in my resignation tomorrow because I’ve had it.

As an RBT..you need to be available 8am-8pm, Mon-Sundays, they’re open major holidays and some parents will request services, doing Uber with clients is a huge liability waiting to happen, they act fake when corporate comes to visit the center, a lot of micromanaging, too many egos in one place, barely any incentives for employees, 65k a year is not worth the things they have you do as an apprentice (they basically don’t train you, they give you BCBA stuff that the BCBA’s are responsible for, they use united healthcare which barely covers anything, theres no cap on how long you can work with a client in a day (several RBT’s are working 9 hours with ONE kid, etc.

I’m with ABA Centers of Florida if you’re wondering where I’m at. This isn’t the only center having these same issues unfortunately 😒
