Pros

Great co-workers, and ems experience. City and hospitals were enjoyable. Awesome call variety, med control much improved. Protocols have pros and cons but you can definitely use your skills

Cons

Pathetic management, can't blame field supervisor. They have no real power, puppets of management. Upper level will run you and everyone else into the ground. Equipment and supplies were always in disrepair and rarely enough on hand.

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.
