Pros
Easy interview and hiring process, friendly day-to-day staff, decent starting salary for inexperienced/first-time EMS providers
Kontras
As a new hire I was informed several times during my first week that if something was not going well or not functioning properly, "that's just AMR". The training process was confusing and at times very frustrating, especially as an experienced EMS provider. As a new provider entering this company I would be wary of performing my first rides and patient contacts with so little training and disorganization. The salary also leaves a lot to be desired for seasoned EMS providers transferring in since it does not appear that there is any additional compensation for prior experience. And as other EMS providers know, work/life balance is always difficult in this field, but I think that AMR makes it even more difficult by giving you little to no control over your schedule, especially as a new hire. It also is very difficult to arrange to take time off, and actually have it approved.
