Business Outlook

Pros

Safety, decent training, great maintenance practices at most bases, no pressure to fly in unsafe conditions, more stable employment than other air medical companies, 401K contribution doubled up to 6% by company.

Cons

Questionable management decisions. Horrendous marketing department compared to other companies. No urgency in staffing open positions which leads to over worked staff trying to cover open shifts. Nurse and medic pay needs to improve in certain parts of the country.

Pros

Great coworkers. Pay is okay, could start out a little higher for the amount of work. Good training program.

Cons

Communications (dispatch) is very understaffed. The dispatchers there do great but are quickly overwhelmed. Medical benefits could be a lot better.
