Pros

Busy system with a multitude of calls to gain experience. Lots of CEUs to earn.

Cons

Low pay, only affordable to live with overtime and running yourself thin. No shift differentials. Schedules are not flexible, they added additional hours to the schedule without compensation. Management is not there for you, they only care about protecting themselves and the money in their pockets. They have terrible attitudes and behavior. High turnover rates and fast burnout. Equipment fails constantly and when a truck needs to go out of services they don’t fix it half the time and put it back into rotation. Lack of PTO approval, no sick leave. Clear evidence of discrimination (racism, sexism, harassment, etc… not just from fellow employees, but from supervisors and management). Also known for retaliation again their employees. Unorganized and terrible communication.

It’s a company that doesn’t care about you

Pros

My biggest pro was working with the coworkers that I had. AMR also had a lot of good equipment, great 911 experience in the Las Vegas valley.

Cons

The good equipment that they did have they never fixed or replaced after it breaks. They make it clear that they don’t care about you and good luck getting time off if you have a family emergency. In Las Vegas, we got mandatoried to work OT every week, they wanted 12 hour shifts as well, working 5 12 hour shifts one week and 4 the next is not fun. The manager outright ignores you and when she did eventually respond, had a heavy attitude. They also pay SUPER low for the industry in Las Vegas. And when they were going to give us a “significant raise” they lied to us about how much that was going to be. Community ambulance is seemingly taking over the valley and AMR can’t keep compliance in their own jurisdictions so AMR will seemingly be IFT only in Vegas soon.
