Loved being a Paramedic as it can be absolutely rewarding helping others! Although, the management at AMR is horrible. - Field Paramedic AMR Employee Review

Pros

Great ability to gain experience at a Paramedic/EMT running calls in the 911 system and working hand in hand with Fire Departments and Hospitals.

Cons

The hardest part of the job was dealing with Management at AMR- Rancho Division. Unfortunately you get the sense that although the job you do as a Paramedic is extremely important, you're very easily expendable as an employee. They pay very low considering the responsibility involved in handling people lives and know that most people are working on the ambulance to gain experience for Fire Departments. This gives management the upper hand knowing that if your not happy you can just leave and they'll replace you with the next at a lower pay rate.

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.
