Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Pros

Career growth opportunities, supportive coworkers, opportunities to learn and develop, ability to advance if you stay engaged and work hard

Cons

Healthcare/EMS can be demanding, long hours at times, stressful days, and workload can be heavy depending on staffing and operations. These things aren’t specific to AMR, that’s our industry in general.

Pros

As we continue to strengthen our culture, our Core Behaviors remain the foundation for how we lead, engage, and deliver results across our teams. These behaviors are not just guiding principles—they define the expectations for how we interact with each other, our patients, and our communities every day. At their core, these behaviors drive consistency and alignment across the organization. By prioritizing care, encouraging open communication, seeking to understand, collaborating on solutions, and holding ourselves accountable, we create an environment grounded in trust, respect, and shared responsibility. I am proud to be part of a great organization that exemplifies the core behaviors.

Cons

Success of the Core Behaviors depends on consistent leadership, clear application, and sustained reinforcement over time. This is a challenge that will take time.
