Pros

Great Safety Rating and phenomenal maintenance program with very well maintained air frames. 401K is great, line level crew members are phenomenal for the most part.

Cons

New company wide scheduling takes crews away from families without additional compensation. Health insurance is very expensive, IT systems are improving but still stuck in the 90s, too much upper management, more worried about the bottom dollar and no longer their employees(this is new as of Fall 2017)

Pros

Lucrative sign-on bonus, plentiful OT. Progressive protocols, involved medical direction. Safety culture is second to none. Well structured new-hire academy and fantastic instructors. Travel positions give amazing opportunity for travel and long stretches of time off. Good work/life balance. Supportive management.

Cons

As is the case industry-wide, Paramedic pay and disparity with nurses needs to be addressed.

Pros

Hmmm??? I have none after 4 years of employment there. Oh wait, Wade Cook. The one pro is that individual doing his best in a company full of crazy!

Cons

So many things. Worst per diem rate in the industry, a whopping $30 a day in 2025. What a joke. Oh wait, they do send you hard, stale, Christmas and July 4th jar with 10 candy pieces in it for the base. Only company requiring the PVT, which is the biggest joke of safety there is. An OCC that doesn’t even know when aircraft are flying. Helicopters that should be condemned. No technological advancements, threw away all the ads-b interfaces with the transponders so had to get sentry’s for each aircraft. Management that doesn’t care about people. Literally, from the top of Q Investments, which is sad because he was a West Pointer and being military as well, evident he missed the classes on Be Know Do Leadership. And the lack of transparency and integrity is soooo lacking. Literally the last week we were informed that the severance package we had been promised for 4 months came with a stipulation that 100% meant it wasn’t going to be offered and then showed how much they truly didn’t care about the people that work there when called out on it.
