Pros

The compensation is competitive and the experience gained in exceptional.

Cons

AMR is a lifestyle. You become part of a group that is expected to give a lot for very little in return and there will almost never be any kind of "Thank you". Compensation is competitive by position title but employees are expected to do much more than their job description and title calls for on a daily basis. When they fire or lay off, they dump those responsibilities on remaining employees without adjusting compensation. Employees are treated as though their opinions don't matter or could'nt possibly be intelligent enough to support growth in the organization. Management treats everything as a big secret and yet once the secret is revealed, your left wondering why, any of it had to be a secret. If you know too much you are phased out of the company not utilized. If you try to do the right thing, you are looked down upon. There is a significant amount of harassment (even sexual) by management especially at the General Manager level and those that perpetrate are typically either protected or given chances that the rest of us wouldn't. Investigations are always one sided unless corporate comes in and then everyone gets threatened not to talk. Employees who simply exist or have poor performance are protected and those that excel are looked down upon and even fired or laid off. Several members of mid level management are offensive and degrading and yet no one seems to understand why everyone wants to leave.

Pros

I have been with AMR for 10+ years and I have to say, it’s an outstanding organization for anyone looking to advance their career in Emergency Medical Services (EMS). One of the standout features is the abundance of career advancement opportunities—they really invest in their team members with comprehensive in-house training programs that help you build skills and certifications at every level. Whether you’re starting out as an EMT or aiming for paramedic roles or even leadership positions, AMR provides clear pathways and support to grow professionally. What I love most is how AMR operates nationwide, giving you flexibility and variety in your work environment. From high-paced urban emergency responses to specialized disaster relief teams, there’s a diverse range of settings to match your interests and skills. This not only keeps the job exciting but also allows for transfers or new challenges without leaving the company. Overall, AMR fosters a supportive culture focused on excellence in patient care and employee development—if you’re passionate about EMS, this is a top-notch place to build a rewarding career! Highly recommend.

Cons

No real cons to speak about.

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.
