Pros

Helping people and providing a service to smaller communities that don't have access to higher levels of healthcare.

Cons

Unprofessional training staff at the training center. Little to no materials given for learning about the aircraft. Check airman who don't understand their role nor authority within the training facility. Completely disconnected on how to teach and listen to concerns from pilots on learning new aircraft. The entire experience was a joke. The disfunction and unprofessionalism throughout that place is very concerning given the important work and industry they're in. I would definitely think twice before accepting an offer from air methods.

Pros

Only pro was the hiring process which consisted of two interviews and then an offer. That should have been the first red flag.

Cons

Private Equity controlled organization. No onboarding process or training provided. You are sent to their HQ for two days of learning how to turn your computer on and how to open a couple of computer applications. They are looking for a zero to hero hire. Be prepared. Tumultuous with lots of turnover. Was told this was a career-long role and in a couple of short months, the CEO was fired, the VP of sales took off. New executive leadership team created an environment of fear and layoffs. Lots of huge egos and very little tolerance for questioning poor business decisions and strategies. No attention given to the voice of the customer and what would strategically help move the needle. It really gives off the odor of a company trying to be sold.
