Pros

This company provides valuable experience for those new to the EMS profession. While compensation is relatively low compared to the national average, it is competitive with other private EMS providers in the area. There is room for growth, with opportunities for advancement largely subsidized by the company, such as AEMT and Paramedic school. Additionally, employees with the right qualifications can transition into corporate roles within the organization.

Cons

Unfortunately, this branch has no hiring standards for EMS personnel. As a result, individuals who may not be suited for the profession are often hired, leading to a workforce with varying levels of education and competency. While compensation is competitive within the local private EMS market, it remains among the lowest in the nation, with some employees earning salaries at or near the poverty level. The lack of hiring standards also means that working conditions can be challenging. While you may find great partners, many employees can be difficult to work with due to personality conflicts or questionable actions toward both coworkers and patients, raising concerns about integrity and professionalism. Management is notably detached from the daily realities faced by field crews. The current manager, Kirk Schmit, is rarely present with the crews or engaged in gathering feedback, leading to changes that are often unwanted or ineffective. Additionally, employee benefits are minimal, with no significant perks beyond discounts, including only discounted health plans rather than comprehensive coverage.
