It could be so much better

Pros

Company gives you needed capital resources and supplies (when you know who and how to ask for it). Room for advancement in multiple areas of healthcare and business administration. Decent benefits

Cons

Pay for ground level providers is abysmal. This leads to high employee turnover and continuous short staffing. Local ops has no ability to increase pay due to a lack of corporate support. Convoluted administrative structure. No guidance or support for local level operations from the corporate level. It takes YEARS to figure out who to contact for various things within the company. Local ops are left to fend for themselves with no real ability to incite change (as change requires approval from corporate). It feels like no one is in charge and we are all a bunch of ships drifting aimlessly towards a waterfall. Even when corporate decides they are ready to push an initiative it's not seen through to completion and we rinse and repeat over and over again. Severe lack of downstream communication.

Pros

Of the three divisions in the ICEMA is the better one to work for. You have a better working relationship with the other local emergency agencies. Less egos. Limited resources gives you better opportunities for experience. Double time is pretty easy to come by when staffing levels are low, which is often. Union and management work well with each other. Management is very receptive and approachable. Preceptor pay. Flexible work schedule. 401k match; 5% employees, 4% employer. Other divisions offer 6% employee; 3% employer.

Cons

Salary and upward advancement is limited. It’s the smaller of three divisions in ICEMA so we tend to be an afterthought to the powers that be. Long distances between post moves can make your day long if you’re getting ping-ponged. 24 hour shifts can be bruisers. Not only do you get woken up consistently for late night calls, you often get woken up for post moves. Health benefits are one step above nothing. They are very expensive for such a large copay amount.
