Pros

They have snacks I guess you sometimes have nice moments where you get to help people but that wears off really fast when you realize you can't even help yourself financially or mentally. The burn out is real and this job is unsustainable, I feel that I'm failing in life, I thought being a paramedic meant something, I doesn't.

Cons

They don't care about you, your just a body that fills the seat, they pay you less than a job in fast food or retail work with x8 the responsibility. I hope you hate sleeping, cause your on for 24 hours which means you're working for 24 hours with 0 sleep. This has to be a joke? Sadly it's not.

Pros

Career growth opportunities, supportive coworkers, opportunities to learn and develop, ability to advance if you stay engaged and work hard

Cons

Healthcare/EMS can be demanding, long hours at times, stressful days, and workload can be heavy depending on staffing and operations. These things aren’t specific to AMR, that’s our industry in general.

Pros

As we continue to strengthen our culture, our Core Behaviors remain the foundation for how we lead, engage, and deliver results across our teams. These behaviors are not just guiding principles—they define the expectations for how we interact with each other, our patients, and our communities every day. At their core, these behaviors drive consistency and alignment across the organization. By prioritizing care, encouraging open communication, seeking to understand, collaborating on solutions, and holding ourselves accountable, we create an environment grounded in trust, respect, and shared responsibility. I am proud to be part of a great organization that exemplifies the core behaviors.

Cons

Success of the Core Behaviors depends on consistent leadership, clear application, and sustained reinforcement over time. This is a challenge that will take time.
