Compare Verbal Behavior Center for Autism vs Genesis Behavior Center

Pros

Friendly employees, small company with opportunity for growth, job is for a good cause, you get to see improvement of clients over time, $0.45/ mi from client to client, willingness to give insurance... even at 30 hr/wk, paid training

Cons

Low starting wage ($16 for direct service, $15 for everything else), low hours (contract only guarantees hours for the first three months- currently offers 20-40 hrs/wk), a lot of office work that is... mind-numbing (finding pictures, cutting, laminating, putting papers in binders, organizing), pretty much have to become rBT (which they don't offer compensation for), a ton of driving (upwards of 2.5 hr/day, 300 mi/week), requires a lot of patients (a lot of noncompliance seen with clients), uncomfortable client settings (you are guaranteed to sweat during summer because they don't put on AC)

Pros

Genesis is a great company; I've been here for two years and enjoy what I do. I currently work at the Stockton Center, where my coworkers are really friendly and helpful. I am grateful for the... opportunity to work for such an amazing company.  It's heartwarming to see how far the kids have come. My bosses are fantastic and always go out of their way to help me when I need it. The HR department is kind and professional. The organization operates well together, and I am looking forward to continuing my career with Genesis.

Cons

There are no cons, Genesis is extremely polite to everyone, and seeing all of these negative reviews breaks my heart because they genuinely care about everyone's well-being.
