Pros

The company genuinely cares for it's employees, the company is small so it feels like a big family, most everyone there are great to be around and are more than willing to teach, they offer 24 hour shifts, tons of 911 experience, if you work in PSRFA's area (Kent, Maple Valley, Sea-Tac), you respond red (lights and sirens) to every call, you get frequent face-to-face contact with multiple fire departments, Tri-Med has a great relationship with the local fire departments so firefighters treat you as an equal in most interactions as long as you're respectful and decent at your job, there's also tons of opportunity for overtime.

Cons

I honestly have nothing really negative to say. However, you definitely need to look at this company as a stepping-stone - and they advertise it as such. Use it as the resume builder to get the dream job. Many come here to get patient contacts for medic school and PA school. The frequent contact with the firefighters have resulted in letters of recommendation from them for good EMTs. It's fantastic experience for the start of an EMS career, but you'll never get a significant pay-raise outside of becoming a shift supervisor.

Pros

Amazing place to work, smaller company so management and the owner are very accessible and easy to speak with. Supervisors are all very kind and care about you. Depending on the shift you work, different ratios of 911 to IFT but always a mix of both. Opportunity for 24hr shift based on seniority status where you will get most/all 911 calls out of quarters. Rigs are also getting upgraded quick- F-350’s with auto loaders for all 24hr crews and many day cars. Opportunities for CCT and fire alliance where you are stationed within a local FD. This company supports and values that many of its employees use this as a stepping stone to another career goal which I love. Compensation is also competitive for the area.

Cons

Can sometimes be hard to get ahold of scheduling for requests about new partners or new shifts.
