Pros

Always busy, plenty of work to do, immediate supervisors tend to be attentive, make a difference in patients' lives. Little chance of layoffs, job security is fairly high. I would recommend to a friend WITH reservations-- would make the cons clear before recommending UNMH.

Cons

Low paying jobs, extremely rare raises, and no room for advancement AT ALL. Immediate supervisors are unwilling to take a stand against higher levels of management, stressful work environment, staffing is a constant issue, often times you must take on several work loads due to scheduling mishaps, mixed messages about OT, some patients are horrendous, chance of getting attacked my insane people (not a joke-- very serious).

Pros

The job was fantastic and I very much enjoyed everything we did. The hours were great and it was the perfect distance from my home.

Cons

They waited until 4 days before my probation period was up, and brought me in a room with two supervisors and a random nurse and terminated me because “ I’m not a good fit for the team”. They say my clinical skills are impeccable and no one from the hospital had any complaints about me in any way. A few people decided for me that my personality was too big for their team to handle. That says a lot about management there. I’ve NEVER been terminated in 26 years as a paramedic, but I come to UNM with a big personality and they cannot handle it.
