Pros

Taking care of patients. Best co-workers ever. Flying. Anonymity. Schedule. Safety is priority (at the ground level at least)

Cons

Pay. Pay. Pay. No Union. No appreciation from employer. Telling people how much you make is degrading. They will try to get you to think they are doing you a favor by letting you work here. A common quote from management "if you don't like it, you can work somewhere else". Another one of my favorites, "we will always give you an answer but you might not like it". It goes without saying, we never like it. Management has no training and punishes like the employees are children. No Union. Schedule is great until you get training and yearly classes piled on you. Minimal chance for advancement.

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.
