Pros

My biggest pro was working with the coworkers that I had. AMR also had a lot of good equipment, great 911 experience in the Las Vegas valley.

Cons

The good equipment that they did have they never fixed or replaced after it breaks. They make it clear that they don’t care about you and good luck getting time off if you have a family emergency. In Las Vegas, we got mandatoried to work OT every week, they wanted 12 hour shifts as well, working 5 12 hour shifts one week and 4 the next is not fun. The manager outright ignores you and when she did eventually respond, had a heavy attitude. They also pay SUPER low for the industry in Las Vegas. And when they were going to give us a “significant raise” they lied to us about how much that was going to be. Community ambulance is seemingly taking over the valley and AMR can’t keep compliance in their own jurisdictions so AMR will seemingly be IFT only in Vegas soon.

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

AMR San Mateo is making huge strides in changing the Old Boy culture of EMS. The operation is collaborative, cares for its employees, and acts with accountability.

Cons

Although it's much better than it was, AMR San Mateo still deals with staffing issues, primarily for medics, and forced mandation is still in play.
