I have worked here for 4+ years, in various roles, in all regions of the company. The company has a solid corporate culture of safety and clinical quality. Many of the cons that I have seen have been more rooted in the local leadership/management and less on the company as a whole.
Pay is competitive for the industry.
Cons
Regional differences in culture can cause poor outlooks. HEMS in general needs to pay more for clinicians, the adage of "you can make more money with OT" is not a sustainable lifestyle long term.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback and for your years with Air Methods. We’re glad you’ve seen the strength of our safety and clinical culture, and we appreciate your perspective on leadership and regional differences.
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.
