Pros
Weekly paychecks. Flexible scheduling. Willingness to work with school schedules, but only if it’s for paramedic school. No repercussions for calling out. Some benefits. 10, 12, and 24 hour shifts.
Cons
They claim to be competitive when it comes to pay, but at the same time cap out at other companies starting medic wages. The uniforms are GARBAGE. We don’t get appropriate weather gear; they want you to believe that you only need a Costco jacket and a high-viz beast when it’s raining. No boot allowance. You need new uniforms and it’s the middle of your work week? Cool, they make you go pick them up on your own time, and you get reprimanded if you show up without them. The button-up uniforms are literally cop uniforms with their patch on them. The one polo you do get is the worst thing ever on summer months; not breathable and stains. You want a cool 5.11 sweater? You only get one for your entire stay at the company. Benefits are trash, and also super expensive if you have dependents. No repercussions for call offs, leading to shortages on shift. Supervisors lack any supervising experience. Managers lack any managing experience.
