Pros

You have the opportunity to work as many hours as you would like and make a lot of money in OT hours but you will sacrifice your physical and mental health in the process

Cons

Required to work 240 hours a month. Rotating 24s and additional mandatory overtime of 60-72 hours as well as late hold overs. You will be working 36 hour shifts with minimal sleep 4 hours the entire time is a great shift. You will not be able to have any home life.

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.
