Pros

- Lots of great opportunities to learn important hands-on skills - Long(ish) transport times allow for understanding and ascertaining the fundamentals of clinical care in a prehospital setting. - The pay has recently improved company-wide. - No IFTs whatsoever - Semi-recently updated fleet of new ambulances. This means far fewer breakdowns and more comfortable experiences in them.

Cons

- The biggest issue is posting to other cities for coverage to meet compliance. It causes fatigue, burnout, and frustration for all ambulance crews. - Management at the end of the day needs to do what is best for the system and company, regardless of the situation. This means less than ideal decisions about operation guidelines sometimes. - Other employees do not show very much compassion and it leads to a toxic workplace. - While the pay has improved, it is still not as competitive as other systems locally.

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.
