What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of working at the company is the unexpected skill you develop in adapting to priorities that shift without warning, giving you a kind of instinctive agility you didn’t know you needed.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part about working at the company is trying to keep up with priorities that shift before anyone acknowledges they’ve changed. Updates often arrive in fragments, half‑instructions, vague hints, or retroactive clarifications that rewrite what you thought you were doing. Tasks appear suddenly, meetings drift in and out of existence, and direction tends to surface only after decisions have already been made. You spend a lot of time decoding silence, interpreting tone, and guessing which version of the plan is the current one, all while being held accountable for expectations that were never fully communicated.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment and culture at the company feel like a blend of constant motion and quiet uncertainty, where information drifts in slowly—if at all—and everyone learns to read between the lines more than the actual messages. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day feels like moving through a workflow that keeps rewriting itself in real time. Tasks appear without introduction, priorities shift before anyone confirms they’ve changed, and meetings hover in a strange in‑between state, scheduled, unscheduled, postponed, or somehow already finished.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I mean - like any ABA company, working with the clients and families … but l that doesn’t have anything to do with SkyCare ABA 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Everything - this company does not care about retaining staff or the quality of their ABA services. BCBAs are expected to do literally everything - including putting out fires that the upper management decides to start - but then not supporting the staff or ever helping them out in difficult situations. They will put you in unethical situations, they don’t have any training for BTs, they don’t take into account any drive time for either BCBAs or BTs and may lie in the interview about where clients are located so get people to accept the job - but those staff end up leaving really quickly - so it’s up to the BCBA to either do direct hours, continuously make the parents upset with the staff turnover/lack of hours/lack of competent staff due to no company training given to BTs, they will micromanage you if you are salaried - and if you’re not salaried, they will tell you not to bill as much (so they don’t have to pay the BCBAs as much). There is absolutely no support, no communication whatsoever, and just overall a very unethical, stressful, mismanaged company. There is also no room for growth for any position within the company.

Working a part timer  came with several challenges, primarily due to poor communication and lack of proper training. Expectations were often unclear, and I was expected to take on responsibilities without enough guidance or support. Despite being part-time, the workload could be overwhelming, and last-minute schedule changes made it difficult to balance work with personal commitments. Coordination between staff and management was inconsistent, leading to frequent misunderstandings and added stress. Concerns about workflow and patient care often went unaddressed, making it frustrating to perform effectively. While I gained experience in delegation and patient coordination, the overall work environment felt disorganized and unsupportive.

Turnover is alarmingly high, largely due to indiscriminate hiring practices and an evident lack of onboarding structure. Employee benefits fall below industry standards, and basic entitlements like paid time off required repeated requests to access.

Communication from leadership was dismissive, and staff feedback was routinely disregarded. Calls from out-of-state team members during off-hours further disrupted any sense of work-life balance. While the company claims to have a vision, there is little evidence of strategic planning or effective execution.

Numerous questionable practices raise ethical concerns, including a disregard for employee preparedness and inadequate training. New hires were often expected to complete their 40-hour RBT certification independently and simultaneously manage clients—without sufficient instruction or supervision.

Overall, the experience was draining and unsustainable. I would urge prospective employees to carefully evaluate whether this environment aligns with their expectations for professional development and workplace support.



Oh, where do I begin? If you’ve ever dreamed of working in complete chaos with zero support and a dash of ethical ambiguity, this is the place for you. They’ll hire literally anyone who breathes and says they like kids—no training? No problem! Who needs onboarding when you can be thrown directly into sessions with clients and just wing it?

Benefits? Barely. PTO? Only if you beg... repeatedly. And don’t worry about setting boundaries—calls from the Jersey folks will keep your evenings and weekends excitingly unpredictable. Who needs a work-life balance when you can have constant anxiety?

There’s a “vision,” allegedly, but execution? That would require planning, organization, and leadership—none of which are present. Fraudulent practices? Oh, just minor things like letting staff nap on the job. Training? Oh yes, they expect you to magically complete your 40-hour RBT training while already working with clients and figuring it all out yourself.

In short, it’s a masterclass in how not to run a company. If you enjoy chaos, confusion, and questionable ethics, you’ll feel right at home.

Working here was one of the most mentally and emotionally draining experiences I've ever had. The environment is steeped in hopelessness, where motivation is crushed under the weight of poor leadership and systemic dysfunction. Fair wages? Forget it. Compensation is far below industry standards, and any attempt to question it is met with deflection or silence. There is no real support system in place—no mentorship, no constructive feedback, no recognition of effort—just a constant stream of unrealistic expectations.

The management style is authoritarian and rooted in control rather than collaboration. The manager, in particular, exerts authority through fear and micromanagement, creating a climate of anxiety where people are afraid to speak up, make mistakes, or even take a breath. Constructive criticism is nonexistent; instead, employees are belittled, scapegoated, or ignored entirely.



Prioritizing profits over people? Groundbreaking. It’s truly inspiring how they’ve managed to create a workplace so devoid of support and dignity that burnout isn’t a risk—it’s part of the onboarding process. Who needs morale when you can have exhaustion and quiet desperation as your daily motivators?

Innovation? That’s cute. Turns out it’s hard to be creative when you’re too busy surviving the emotional gauntlet of a company that treats basic well-being as an optional perk. And let’s not forget the customers—those pesky individuals depending on the service. Apparently, delivering on promises is passé. Far more efficient to let families deal with the fallout of inconsistency and neglect while the C-suite counts the quarterly bonuses.

In the end, it’s a masterclass in short-sighted greed: alienate your workforce, disappoint your customers, and somehow act surprised when everything begins to unravel. Truly, a legacy of dysfunction in the making.



SkyCare ABA is a cautionary tale. It’s the kind of company that gives healthcare a bad name — dysfunctional, disorganized, and run by leadership that’s more concerned with control and appearances than quality care or ethical operations.

The company is not growing. In fact, it’s stuck — weighed down by poor systems, high turnover, and a leadership style that is controlling, ego-driven, and detached from reality. Anyone who raises concerns or tries to improve things is quickly viewed as a threat. Toxicity starts at the top, and it trickles down fast.

Despite the heavy talk of mission and impact, the day-to-day is a mess of last-minute scrambling, finger-pointing, and decisions made without any real input from people who actually understand the work. There’s no accountability, no real strategy, and no respect for experienced professionals. If you're thinking this might be a place to grow — don’t. It's a revolving door.

They will interview you over video and will hype you up, make lots of promises, and follow through with none of them. They do not care about your well-being, your hours, your cases, or you. The hourly rate was decent but it does not matter when you have no hours. You may think you are in the clear because they are hiring you full-time, but when your cases drop because they always do, they will be in no rush to find new ones for you. There is a plethora of ethical issues in addition to a lack of care for you as a worker. There is no communication with management. They will ignore emails or respond to them without actually responding. I promise I am not just writing this review because of a bad personal experience. I feel compelled to warn people so that they do not get treated as poorly as I did and as my fellow coworkers continue to be treated. Do yourself a favor and stay far away from this company.

 The turnover is out of control because they’ll hire anyone who shows interest in working with kids—no real vetting, no onboarding, no structure. Benefits? Pretty much non-existent. 
No one listens. Feedback goes in one ear and out the other. The team out in Jersey would constantly call at all hours—especially during busy seasons or late evenings—so forget about any kind of work-life balance.
They love to talk about “the vision,” but there’s zero execution behind it. It’s all smoke and mirrors. There were so many questionable, things going on—like staff being told to let clients nap to avoid dealing with behaviors. Training was a joke. You're expected to somehow complete a 40-hour course and earn your RBT while getting tossed straight into sessions with no proper guidance or supervision.
If you're looking for professionalism, support, or even basic ethics—this is not the place.
