Pros

You'll get your paychecks on time. There's as much OT to pick up as you want, typically with a bonus stipend (for now, not sure how long that'll last). Shifts vary quite a bit, so you have your choice to choose from many, although that's for OT only. If you're new here, your regular shifts are decided by seniority points. Expect to work the back half of the week (Th, Fr, Sa, EO Wed) on nights for a couple years. Options to go to EMTA or medic school on the company dime, if you're willing to sign 2 years of work to them.

Kontras

Low pay for the cost of living. Expect to work as a medic for $15 an hour for the first 6 months until you get a review and then bumped up to just under $18. Practically no downtime between calls. You can expect to run on most nights from hospital to call. FD has scene control and loves to show it. The Union went away last year, and the company is currently picking and choosing policies to follow from under the CBA as it transitions to its new version. All very secretive stuff atm, and personally seems untrustworthy. Management just brought back a policy that was sworn would not be enforced any longer, keeping crews over beyond their 12 hour shift, and also has threatened call backs on days off. As of this writing, the call backs have not happened yet, but holdovers have.

Pros

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.

Kontras

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.
