Pros

I feel supported here at AIM. As a BI, I see my supervisors on my cases often. They are quick to overlap with me, answer my questions and help me with any issues that come up. I am assigned a supervisor mentor who checks in with me on a regular basis. The pay is good, I receive PTO, sick time, and holiday pay. The CEO is out in the field with the rest of the clinical staff. Everyone is supportive and caring. I enjoy working here.

Cons

Like other companies, we work mostly by ourselves, which can get lonely.

It is wonderful to know that our staff feels supported while working at AIM. We have been working hard towards ensuring job satisfaction for all of our staff administratively and clinically. Please know that we understand the loneliness aspect of being out in the field and we are working towards finding solutions and fun ways to get our clinical staff together. Thank you for the positive feedback. Warm regards, Sandy Shaw, Ph.D., BCBA, Director of AIM.

Pros

I worked with AIM years ago (before 2013 but I can't select years before then). My experience couldn't have been better. The kids and most of the parents were incredibly sweet. Both Sandy and my supervisor were wonderful mentors and helped me not only learn ABA techniques but helped me become the professional I am today. Hands down best organization I've ever worked.

Cons

At the time being an independent contractor was a bit painful during tax season but using quarterly estimates are recommended.

Pros

The clients make the job worthwhile. Working with kids and families, seeing client growth, and learning about ABA strategies are definite pros. The supervisors are all supportive, knowledgeable and caring.

Cons

The emphasis is on the bottom line, not the well-being of clients. Employees are treated like they're unimportant and disposable. There are no holidays, sick days, or vacation days for BIs, even if you're full-time. The CEO doesn't seem to care about her employees or what their ideas are. A couple of years ago over 100 people left the company at the same time because they were being treated so badly. The 30 people or so left tried to be loyal, but now they are being treated badly too, so good people are leaving again. Turnover is a direct result of the CEO. Because of the huge turnover rate, the clients suffer.

There has been so many changes within the ABA community and services. I apologize for neglecting my employees while working towards adjusting to the many changes within our industry. My employees are what makes this company great! They are the ones who work and develop the close relationships with our clients and who help them make the necessary improvements to have a better quality of life. I appreciate each and every one of my employees. and have always maintained the wish to provide a supportive and collaborative place for my employees to work. Since this posting, I have made significant changes to ensure job satisfaction and support for all categories of my staff. I am and will always be open to feedback and welcome collaboration from current and former employees to continue to better job satisfaction for my employees. Thank you for your posting. Sandy Shaw, Ph.D., BCBA President/Director of AIM, Inc.
