Pros

The pay is okay for EMTs

Cons

Dispatch is very unorganized. You have to sit on hold with dispatch most times for 20-30min for a simple question. Dispatch tries to give you calls after your off time and threatens you if you don't take it. Most dispatchers don't understand common medical terms like hypertension, CCT, and hyperglycemia. Management doesn't seem to care to change problems even when it's brought to their attention. EMTs are being rewarded for not doing their job properly. The company has no FTOs therefore there is basically no training required. Overall the company is more interested in money than it is in their employees and patients. And the company has yet to keep a promise they have made.

Pros

The base hourly pay is very competitive, if not the best as a new EMT looking for experience in the field. They offered a bonus per patient pickup, which was a nice addition to the base pay. You will and can get good EMT experience out of the position, if you want to practice skills; however, if you want to be lazy and just clock in and clock out, that’s also possible.

Cons

Strong pressure from managers and dispatch to cut corners. You need to pick a partner you trust both morally and physically, as no one above you will look after you if something goes wrong. You need to stand your ground on making safety decisions, because you will be pushed to "just try" when situations could become dangerous to yourself, partner, or patient.
