Pros

The pros are good experience for first time paramedics. Medics are paired with EMTs and most of the fire departments are BLS. Another is the company is nationwide so you can transfer away after your probation. Monitors are Lifepak 15. They are pretty good about vehicle maintenance. Coworkers are friendly and easy to get along with.

Cons

Union is weak and management is not employee friendly. Low pay for working a lot of hours in an area that is expensive to live in.

Pros

There’s a good workforce here with employees who are well united on issues a strong sense that the company is actually pushing toward a positive future in terms of operations. Ambulance fleet seems to be getting good upgrades and call volume (in most areas) is manageable. There is also a good amount of OT available with bonuses/incentives available. Matching 401k is nice and health benefits are very reasonable.

Cons

For being such a large operation, the pay rate seems to be lacking as of right now. Most employees with adult responsibilities are having to rely heavily on overtime/incentives just to have a semi-comfortable lifestyle outside of work. Uniforms definitely need improvements and training for new EMTs seems a bit lackluster. The morale can be low at times also due to the company being write-up happy (for lack of a better term). Lack of 24 hour units and proper posting locations makes for a somewhat harsh work day as well.
