Pros
Working with the clients is the best part. Also the supportive team of fellow therapists.
Cons
The unlivable wage (35-hr week, $21.25/hr, $0.50 raise upon receiving RBT certification) The dehumanizing point system that penalizes you for getting sick (while working in childcare...) The outdated data collection methods that require a significant amount of unnecessary extra work/time without any additional compensation. The deteriorating facilities (only 1 custodian for the entire center, broken windows covered with cardboard for months, erratic heating/cooling throughout, etc.) I worked at BBT (and received nothing but positive reviews) for 3 months. During that time, I was out for a total of 5 days due to illness (2 in October, 3 in November). I was not paid for those days, nor was I paid for the Thanksgiving holiday break, which was understandable (as I was still within my probationary 90 days). However, due to the "points" that I accrued due to my absences, they notified me (a week beforehand) that they were going to extend my probation to the end of January, and I therefore would not be receiving holiday pay for 4 days (Christmas & New Years). Furthermore, they were about to implement a new sick policy, but not retroactively. When I was (understandably) upset by this decision, they chose to terminate me because I was "not a good fit". It's really not a terrible place to work, all things considered (if you like the job). But don't ever convince yourself that they care about you or that you are valuable to them - you are not. You are never more than replaceable.
