Pros

As a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) at Soar Autism Center, my experience has been both rewarding and challenging, offering significant professional growth and the opportunity to make a real impact in the lives of children with autism. Below is an overview of my experience in this role. *Supportive Team Environment: From day one, I was welcomed into a team of dedicated and passionate professionals. The center provides a collaborative environment where staff, including BCBAs (Board-Certified Behavior Analysts) and other RBTs, regularly communicate and share strategies to improve client care. This has been essential in helping me develop my skills and feel supported in my work. *Comprehensive Training: The training program was thorough, equipping me with the knowledge and tools necessary to apply Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) techniques effectively. Ongoing supervision and feedback from BCBAs have been invaluable in refining my skills and gaining confidence in my work with clients. *Direct Impact on Clients' Lives: One of the most fulfilling aspects of being an RBT is seeing the progress of the children and adults I work with. Every small achievement—whether it’s learning a new skill, improving communication, or reducing challenging behaviors—feels like a victory. It’s truly rewarding to be part of their journey and to witness their growth. *Opportunities for Career Advancement: The center offers opportunities for career growth, whether through continued education or taking on more responsibilities within the organization. I feel encouraged to pursue and expand my expertise in the field of ABA. *Work-Life Balance: The schedule is generally flexible, and while there are busy times, the work-life balance is reasonable. There’s an understanding that employees need time for personal commitments, which helps to prevent burnout. *The company does several surveys and asks for our opinions. I have seen them make positive changes by listening to employees. I do not feel like I would get in trouble for voicing my opinion with the owners.

Cons

Emotional and Physical Demands: The work can be emotionally taxing, as it requires patience, empathy, and the ability to handle challenging behaviors on a daily basis. Some days can feel particularly draining, especially when working with children who may have severe or unpredictable behaviors. It requires a lot of resilience and a positive mindset. *This is a newer company, and they are still working some things out, but since I have started, I have seen the owners implement suggestions from staff.

Pros

Really great place for those that are wanting to implement the ESDM.

Cons

Too many to list - this is a growing company that’s PE backed, so they are taking on ALOT more than they can chew and it’s concerning. Constantly opening new clinics, while turnover is continuously high. Not to mention, work/life balance is non existent and some things are extremely unethical. Would not recommend this company to anyone.

Pros

Absolutely nothing. This was by far the worst place I have ever worked. I don’t normally write reviews but I felt like I should warn people. Please save the tears, panic attacks, and stress for something that actually matters.

Cons

Terrible work life balance. And this is a CLINIC. That is the one perk of working at a clinic, you can work a normal 9-5. Soar expects you to stay late or come early some days and if you don’t it is held against. My PC was by far the worst person I’ve ever worked with. A PC should be your mentor and guide you through struggles. She was demeaning, inappropriate, and made you feel terrible if you’re not stressing yourself out to “provide to the company”.

Pros

Soar is one of the most organized companies I have ever had the pleasure of working at. The company cares so deeply about each person that works and attends Soar.

Cons

The hardest part of the job is probably keeping a work life balance and not taking work home.

Pros

By far the best ABA company to work for. Ian and Jen are great leaders and very personable. Overall the leadership team is flexible, understanding, and promote a work life balance. The company is constantly looking for ways to improve their processes and value input from ALL their employees.

Cons

Soar is a growing company, which comes with a lot of change as they're improving their systems and processes. However, if you are ready to learn new things and grow with the company, this place is for you.

Pros

Work/life balance has been great Endless growth opportunities, both skills-wise and career ladder This is NOT traditional, abusive ABA. Assent-based, child-centered care instead of the mind set that kids will follow through OR ELSE.

Cons

Caseload larger than originally told in interview, but it has been manageable due to my commitment to my work life balance.
