Pros

Good department for acquiring fire and EMS experience. Management is generally not scrutinizing or overbearing.

Cons

Work-life balance for guys that ride the ambulance is minimal. You will be awake for the majority of 24 hrs if you work at a busy station, and you're on the ambulance for that shift. EMS at this capacity is grueling. New recruits and guys with <5 years experience get treated horribly by more senior guys. Antiquated "traditions" take precedence over acting like an adult. Hazing is predominant and rampant.
