Pros
Benefits, Time Off and Pay are absolutely second to none. As far as industry standards AMR is definately the leader in all three above categories. Pay was great, probably 10-15k higher starting salary then any other provider out there. Benefits were incredible...God I miss those...Dental, Vision, Health all PPO, top notch, handled. Insurance perks for auto and home, all holidays paid, and you acrue PTO at a fast rate...After your first two years you will have two weeks of vacation easily. 401k was good.
Cons
Sadly this corporation is slowly losing ground every day. Honestly, they are very out of touch with their customers and as a company, there word is tarnished. Employees feel neglected and ignored and customers feel like there is a sense of entitlement on AMR's part, as if they are owed something. Managers are scared and afraid to make crucial changes. Supervisors lack critical thinking skills and if you do get a sharp one, they are ignored and scolded and when they try and make changes or just simply when they speak up when they notice problems. This company is ran by a corporation, and honestly ambulance transportation is a business of helping people. When you look at human beings as you would a crate of apples and some other comodity you have a problem. AMR does not care about you as a patient, only as another transport and another dollar..That sums up every problem this company has. They started AMR by buying smaler companies who cared about PEOPLE, and as they grew, they used the names of these companies to grow and slowly but surely lost the compassion and replaced it with stock options. Stay away from this place unless you want to be used up and turned into a cynical jerk...
