Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes reviews about "coworker"

low pay, slow, no time off

Medium to low pay, busy days, rigid schedule, rarely work-from-home

Excess amount of work and underpaid

There isn’t much pay, the commute is long, and only decent hours during the summer

They said they'd let each center "cook in their own kitchen" but only got more micromanage-y

I was there when the office was still figuring out covid protocol, so it was very stressful at times. Lots of callouts.

The burn out is very real. During COVID, the company transitioned to online platforms and have since reversed their desire to expand their online platform almost completely seemingly on a whim (digital note taking back to paper, making teaching from home less and less of an option, etc.). Company policy is so concerned with appearances to nitpick instructor outfits yet they are hesitant to address issues such as the furniture/materials actively falling apart. The center ought to be bigger given how many students, instructors, consultants, admin, and parents are crammed together in the space. The admin team has some pretty awesome people but they're caught between a maelstrom of meetings, tasks, and being the first line of defense from whatever is falling down the corporate ladder -- in the end, they still have to enforce those policies. Over the course of three years, there was one raise.

Not paid enough for amount of work

Lack of upward mobility, raises, and incentives for professional growth. Additionally, staff are trained in behavioral-cognitive programs for teaching that have no basis in peer-review science. The only scientific study on the effectiveness of these programs that exists says that results are similar to other more affordable programs, all of which are better than no treatment at all. All other studies on the programs’ efficacy were authored and run by the founders Pat Lindamood and Nancy Bell. Nancy Bell is the current CEO. The programs cost families as much as a mortgage payment every few months. They have massive incentive to be seen as legitimate, but families are better off finding an ABA-based study program.
