Pros

Great team, friendly coworkers and solid shift supervisors

Cons

Upper management is nonexistent, they do not have Field Training Officers for new hires, they do not have a clinical manager to promote Quality Improvement which is a crucial part of an EMS system. Their protocols haven't been updated in years causing a legal issue with the national standards, and the paramedics are operating off of word of mouth from field supervisors. As a professional, I would avoid this place for EMS work because working for them is a huge liability. A hiring bonus and sandwiches in the break room is not motivation enough to risk my license.
