Falck reviews

Terrible pay. Favoritism and nepotism is rampant. Constant games to get overtime/PTO approved. If you get settled into a shift, be prepared to be at the mercy of dispatch's mood swings and upper managements brainlet motto of maximizing profits via providing areas with low coverage and taking advantage of employees sense of duty to the community (and each other) to overwork them to physical exhaustion.

The academy is very rah rah and gets you excited which is awesome, but then I start working and I noticed a lot of poor management practices, poor incentives i.e. FTOs get an extra $7 after tax for training employees which doesn't create incentive to train well, and doesn't make them feel like they're recognized as an important part of the company. Literally every single employee will have their first five days of field training to judge the company based on how the FTO perceives it. (I was not an fto) $0.60 pay bump to work CCT is laughable. (I did not work cct) There is a pay drop if you work ALS based on the way overtime works. (I did not work als) Driving down to Contra Costa every single shift from Sac gets tiring. This is required due to lack of coverage in the bay due to inadequate wages.
