Pros
I can only state what used to be incredible prior to October of 2017: Safety Progressive medicine Equipment Excellent pilots Travel reimbursement
Cons
This company used to be the crown jewel of air medical and if you worked for PHI, you were regarded as the elite. Those days are simply over thanks to corporate greed. As of October 2017, the executive team elected to increase hours worked to 72 hours a week (x3 24hr shifts a week) and cut pay. This was advertised by the company as a raise by giving a end of year yield figure based on hours worked, however overtime and hourly wages had been slashed. Concerns and opposition from everyone in the PHI company were ignored and management made it clear that they did not care about you or your valued time off with your family away from work. Several resignations from nurses and paramedics now occur weekly as the company has alienated their clinicians by making them work more for less. As a result, morale is rock bottom and both safety and patient care are declining in quality with no hope in sight. Bases look to begin closing their doors as resignation numbers soar. The once incredible appealing culture of PHI is broken and is no longer deserving of any passionate paramedic or nurse.
