      Pros

      The kids themselves are *usually* awesome. When the right program is matched to the right kid for the right amount of time the results can be mind-blowing and life affirming for all involved. I also have some pretty amazing co-workers that make it all so much better!

      Cons

      The company is for profit and driven by sales. It is being run by management that is very far removed from the day to day on the ground interactions that keep it up and running and often make decisions that make no sense but that we are required to follow without showing our dissent. For example, we became a private school about a week before we started accepting students to be a part of it and the “expectation” was that we would take tens of thousands of dollars from these families and literally just “make it up as we went along” ... without credentialed teachers on staff mind you. A year and a half later they realized how badly they screwed up and there were pay cuts and Center closures to keep the business afloat. Our pay was restored but we have yet to have any actual training in how to run a k-12 school where families are paying between $25-$35k per academic school year and it’s still a huge mess. Not to mention that we have kids with some severe diagnosis and with needs that would be better met with a more comprehensive team of professionals or with a different goal altogether. I mean, if your kid has a permanent and debilitating disability (physically and intellectually) and cannot even follow simple language, is paying for private school lessons really the best use of resources??? We don’t partner with an ABA company but I’ve thought time and again that we really should because some of these kids won’t become functional citizens because they aren’t being treated for their social and developmental weaknesses and that’s just as critical to success as an education. Our compensation scale is also laughable. Going from one position to another can be an enormous jump in responsibility and stress for little to NO increase, yup...lots of things are considered “add on” poisons with no additional pay. Or there may only be a dollar difference between your old carefree existence and your new stress fueled one...take on with caution!

      Thank you for sharing your experience with Lindamood-Bell. Your input is extremely important to us. We value and consider all feedback, and will continue to look for ways to improve our workplace but we also want to address your specific comments about instructional quality. Year after year, students make consistent gains as a result of our research-validated instruction. So we are concerned to hear about some of your experiences. Our instruction has been proven effective for students with previous diagnoses, including autism spectrum disorder. We work with our students’ other team members (e.g. psychologists, pediatricians) to provide a safe, effective learning environment. In 2016 we established Lindamood-Bell Academy, a K-12 private school where students can progress in individualized accredited curriculum while working on foundational skills if needed. Every student’s curriculum is supervised by a certified teacher. We will take your comments into consideration as we seek to improve our communication about student outcomes, Academy, and any new initiatives. We absolutely want our entire staff to feel good about what they are doing and why. Thank you again for your review.

      Pros

      It’s great to try to help people, but…

      Cons

      They’re so set on their particular philosophical style, but realistically, it cannot be one size fits all. Clinicians who work there are NOT experts; they only get two weeks of training. And the sessions are extremely tight, with back-to-back students (just five minutes between each, leaving no time to prepare for the next one and no chance for clinicians to catch a breath). Lessons take place in cramped, mostly shared spaces, so everyone tends to be over-stressed. There’s no way that what is taught there, and the environment in which it’s taught, is worth what they’re charging families. Not to mention that the staff break room is like the size of a closet, and even in that tight space, many people just aren’t very friendly and hardly acknowledge your presence.

      Thank you for sharing your experience with Lindamood-Bell. We appreciate that our mission of helping students reach their learning potential resonated with you. At the same time, we are disappointed to read your comments regarding training, scheduling, and your experience with our instructional model. Our initial training is designed to prepare clinicians to begin working one-to-one with students using our unique approach. That training continues through ongoing mentoring and instructional guidance from experienced staff members who oversee lesson planning, monitor student progress, and support instructional quality. This team-based model is central to our instructional approach and to supporting student outcomes. We regret that the purpose and value of this model were not evident during your employment. We also recognize that learning center work can be demanding, particularly during busy periods, and we appreciate your perspective regarding scheduling and the work environment. Feedback such as yours is valuable as we continue working to improve communication and the overall staff experience. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
