Pros
The benefits are great and half the price of my husband's who works for a large ambulance company. All the supervisors are kind, helpful, understanding and compassionate. I started working for a brand new center at its opening and add long as you paid attention the work is simple to understand. I got ill and had to take a leave of absence. HR was very helpful in explaining how to do it and what I was entitled to before calling. I ended up needing surgery and easily turned my personal leave into a medical leave with a phone call. I filled out the paperwork and my doctor faxed it back. I had no problems returning to work when my leave was over. They give you a bonus every month you don't use your unpaid time.
Kontras
During peak season you will work 60 hours a week at the time you most want to spend with your family. The work is very physically demanding and you cannot sit for 10 hours unless you are on break so makesure you invest in a great pairof sneakers (I suggest new balance but that's just me).
