Pros

Great coworkers, excellent equipment, relatively good maintenance, good pay, good schedules available.

Cons

Too much focus on the almighty dollar. Employees are required to get billing information before treating patients in most cases. The patient care suffers because the management places more emphasis on making money than on keeping up to date with medical technology. ambulance crews are overworked due to management reducing the number of trucks on the road to "save money". Management is seriously out of touch with field staff and refuses to make an attempt at connection.

No loyalty to employees

Pros

Large company with many options if you are tired of working on an ambulance. If you like a very structured corporate environment, this might be a good fit for you. They offer semi competitive pay in areas where they haven't purchased all of the competition.

Cons

No loyalty toward the employees, even though they expect total allegiance. They'll fire people just to save $0.12. The company swoops in and buys other companies and leaves them with less than enough resources to function, expecting everything and giving nothing.
