Pros

Quality pay (especially if you have experience), I was pleasantly surprised with the salary they offered me! Management team is impressive. The training for new hires is extensive and high quality, and on the job training is ongoing and extensive. Quality controls are in place. It's interesting...I worked for AMR roughly 20 years ago, and the place was sort of a mess. So I was surprised and happy to find that they've improved a lot in all areas. I enjoy my job, I like my boss, and would recommend this company to anyone seeking a job in EMS.

Cons

Staffing is a problem, both in dispatch and in the field. It's common to be short-staffed and struggle with the call volume.

Pros

Lower level management does care. Friendly office staff and most other crews.

Cons

Upper management only cares about money as a result employees don't get paid what they should. Bonuses are not honored even if it is in the posting because they wont put it in the job offer. Never got $5000 sign on bonus and they even shorted me hours on paycheck when it was brought to their attention they said they would fix it and never did.
