Pros

-They have some good EMTs working for them, at least the ones that haven’t burned out yet. -As long as two week notice is given, they’re usually good about approving single vacation days. Not allowed to take multiple days off in a row.

Cons

As a former employee, I saw company slowly change for the worse. -Dispatch can be super inefficient, having you drive far between calls when there are closer available units -incentive plan is all but non-existent; nothing like the $40/call incentive i heard about when the company started up -no room for permanent growth. Saw many people become FTO then bumped back to field staff because company was cutting shifts -the harder and faster you work, the more you get dumped on you. It’s true from field staff all the way up to station mgrs, but upper Mgmt doesn’t seem to care -no incentive to run calls quickly anymore, unless you want more work dumped on you. -mgmt noticed failing reviews of the company on job search websites and emailed employees asking them to submit positive reviews of the company. Who does that?

Pros

The base hourly pay is very competitive, if not the best as a new EMT looking for experience in the field. They offered a bonus per patient pickup, which was a nice addition to the base pay. You will and can get good EMT experience out of the position, if you want to practice skills; however, if you want to be lazy and just clock in and clock out, that’s also possible.

Cons

Strong pressure from managers and dispatch to cut corners. You need to pick a partner you trust both morally and physically, as no one above you will look after you if something goes wrong. You need to stand your ground on making safety decisions, because you will be pushed to "just try" when situations could become dangerous to yourself, partner, or patient.
