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.

Accommodating workplace but can feel isolating at times

Pros

I like working alone and no one else to worry about. I am mostly referring to someone else's work ethics or lack of. AMR is very accommodating with PTO, work schedule, and generally helping employees be the best version of themselves.

Cons

Sometimes working alone is not socially satisfying. When someone calls of or puts in PTO the work load can fall on the shoulders of the one at work.
