Pros
There are great opportunities for growth at this company as as Behavior Analyst. The company did a phenomenal job trying to keep as many supervisors as possible working during the start of the pandemic when other companies furloughed people. ALP dropped all clinical supervisors from a salaried position to an hourly position for a few months to keep the company afloat. I thought this was extremely smart and economical, while also taking care of their employees the best way they could. The company was 100% transparent with the decisions that were being made in regards to our positions. The company also is dedicated to increasing diversity and training to reduce prejudice and bias in creating programs for our clients. BCBA CEUs are provided on semi-monthly, training for supervisors and updated practices based on research are implemented consistently which is a major plus. There are also opportunities to conduct research as well. There is also a lot of freedom in creating and maintaining my schedule.
Cons
It can be a stressful environment and there is a high turn over of employees, clients, and BTs. I have yet to work for a company that treats and trains BTs as well as they should be trained and treated, although, ALP has come the closest by far.
