Pros

Plenty of experience depending on the system you work. Good stepping stone for others health care careers. Extra shifts are often paid at 2x-2.5x your normal rate. My local operation was union and pay had increased dramatically since I started,

Cons

Your experience may vary depending on the division you are working. Some operations are well run others not so much. Make sure to research the division you are applying to.

Amazing place to start your career. You gain a tremendous amount of knowledge and hands-on experience, and the culture is supportive and collaborative.

Cons

Pay and benefits could have been better There is a glass ceiling in roles unfortunately where you have to wait your turn to advance

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.
