Pros

Decent Pay and Good Benefits Benefits are actually very good compared to most companies these days. They didn't cut benefits due to the economy

Cons

They think if they give decent pay/good benefits well that's all you need. Work/Life Balance: That means you get to sleep in your own bed right? Well for now until they bring the cots into our offices. Management that cares about developing you as an employee? Heck No that might bring them down a notch Co-workers: Horrible the weirdest people I have ever have worked with. I go in every day dreading having to deal with them and they all think that of each other as well. No fuzzy warm feelings in this place folks.

Pros

Being an EMT for AMR in Seattle is probably one of the most rewarding private ambulance positions in the country. As with other private ambulance jobs it's just you and your partner for twelve hours. No boss breathing down your neck! Just run the calls they give you. Also EMTs with AMR Seattle get patients of a much higher acuity then other places. Chest pain, respiratory distress, significantly altered level of consciousness etc. AMR also has the only FEMA contract awarded to private ambulance. You could be part of a disaster response team deployed to hurricanes, and other disasters.

Cons

Be prepared to work LONG hours. Shifts are 12 hours long but be ready to put in 13-14 especially if the dispatchers don't like you! Pay is low, starting at 13. So if you have a family or real bills you'd better be on board for some serious overtime. Most employees with families are working 60-72 hours a week to make ends meet.
