Pluspunten

I was hired here over a year ago. It used to be a good company, the old base was small and everyone was kind of family. But since we've taken on new contracts they've been pushing people to come in more hours. We used to do a lot of events, but we barely have enough people to staff the street so we've had to cut back on events. It's a good job to get your foot in the medical community, but once you get it you should immediately start dropping applications for hospital jobs and educational opportunities.

Minpunten

They tried to make everyone do 3 12 hour shifts so "there wouldn't be anymore holdovers." Everyone saw through that which is why the majority of people are looking for new jobs. The only people still here are people who haven't found a new job yet. You will get held over past the end of your 90% of the time. Don't expect to be off for 2 hours past the end of your shift. Also the salary is bs when I first started I was making a little over $11/hr. I'm making about 12.25 now and I have over a year of experience. They wonder why everyone's leaving for hospital jobs and other transport companies.

Pluspunten

There’s a good workforce here with employees who are well united on issues a strong sense that the company is actually pushing toward a positive future in terms of operations. Ambulance fleet seems to be getting good upgrades and call volume (in most areas) is manageable. There is also a good amount of OT available with bonuses/incentives available. Matching 401k is nice and health benefits are very reasonable.

Minpunten

For being such a large operation, the pay rate seems to be lacking as of right now. Most employees with adult responsibilities are having to rely heavily on overtime/incentives just to have a semi-comfortable lifestyle outside of work. Uniforms definitely need improvements and training for new EMTs seems a bit lackluster. The morale can be low at times also due to the company being write-up happy (for lack of a better term). Lack of 24 hour units and proper posting locations makes for a somewhat harsh work day as well.
