Pros

Decent pay rate. Offers matching 401K and pension.

Cons

Funeral industry is changing fast; competition is stronger than ever and growing. Management does not seem to have a plan to stay competitive or to expand into new areas. Production is down and whole shifts have been eliminated. More focus is placed on cost cutting than on profit building.

Pros

flexible work schedule, mileage/expense reimbursement,

Cons

EMT doesn't accept reality or want any feedback, there are quality issues that aren't acknowledged or fixed. private equity ownerships has changed the focus to cost cutting. this company has went from the nicest product to trying to win the lowest price game because their quality can no longer command the premium price.
