Pros

They will pay you to go to school for Medic and will pay you while in class so it can be very beneficial to use them to get a better cert then leave for the company you actually want.

Cons

greedy, doesn't care about the patient or worker, only cares about the bottom dollar. Can't hold onto good talent especially for management.

Pros

-They will pay you to learn and get your EMT license and they will hire anyone with a pulse that can read. -There’s a union that you can join to help you ensure that you’re treated fairly. The union reps are awesome.

Cons

-The pay is absolutely terrible. -You are a number and not an actual person to management. -The stations, ambulances and equipment are old, dirty and barely operational. -Working EMS in Tucson is sketchy and leads to burn out quickly. -There’s turn over rate is insane because of how employees are treated. -Supervisors and upper management will only talk to you if you get in trouble. They don’t care what your name is or anything about you. -AMR has a bad reputation for a reason. I figured I’d give AMR a chance and it was good for experience but that’s it. I’m not going anywhere here and neither will you.

Pros

Helping people and a great sense of community

Cons

The pay is absolute garbage, you have to check all of your pay stubs because they will cut your hard worked hours and make you wait another pay period to pay you what is owed, the schedules are all based off of seniority, the sites and machines are constantly down.
