Med-Trans Corporation

Med-Trans was formally an exceptional place to work.  However, since the former President resigned, it’s gone drastically downhill.  It’s always been dysfunctional and communication has always been poor.  However, it’s in deplorable condition as it sits today.  Top Management does not fully understand all aspects of the business, just their silo which creates political battles between all levels.  One silo feels they are more important than another.  The business side management is verbally abusive, aggressive in nature, threatening and demeaning.   This happens when you inbreed management from other very poorly managed companies like Air Methods and AMR.   It’s typical EMS management behaviors, leading by fear and intimidation.  If you’re willing to be disrespected and degraded at work, all while being intimidated that you will be terminated for reporting this behavior to HR then go for it.   They are setting themselves up for a lawsuit, they simply throw severances at people to keep their mouths shut.   It’s deplorable to consider how far down they have allowed themselves to go.  The entire upper level management team (including President) needs to be eliminated for a rebuild, but that will never happen.  I’d advise anyone considering a position with Med-Trans to run away from this company as fast as possible!

This review is based on Med Trans corp as a company. I was fortunate that my base was a great place to work. Great co-workers and base manager. The job is as good as a base wants it to be. Recently Med-Trans (AMGH) has acquired several other large companies and have become extremely bottom line driven. They have never paid well, but I have put up with that due to they treated staff employees very well and with respect. Those days are gone and they are too large to actually care about the bottom of the ladder. Most recently they have decide to implement a “pay adjustment”across the board by 10% ( base level staff). Working more hours for less pay does not make up for lossing 3 1/2 years of yearly increase. All employees that have been with this company for less than 4 years will be making less than when they started. Ultimately making this job not possible to workout. If the company had not forgotten who goes out at night and delivers their service to the customer this would still be a great place to work.

The pilot and mechanic does not have a say in the culture at this company. The chief pilot is always screaming and threatening to fire pilots and mechanics at the drop of a hat. Medical crews are disciplined but not terminated due to their affiliation with local hospitals and ems. The fear of losing a call makes the company turn a blind eye to med crew safety and down right ignorant behavior towards the pilot and mechanic. The policy at this company is its easier to get rid of a pilot or mechanic and lure another unsuspecting military pilot or just got my 500 hour turbine CFI then terminate trouble making med crew. It truly is a conflict of interest and the FAA is already on it. It won't be long and this company will be shut down.  Avoid this company prospective pilot or mechanic. The juice isn't worth the squeeze.

I’m sure being a pilot, mechanic,  nurse is exactly what you dreamed it would be.  If you are working in the Dallas Ft Worth corporate  locations do your homework. Like most big corporate environments, all functional areas think they are more important than other areas.
Management isn’t responsive to change, question, suggestion.  
Management doesn’t have your back. 
So many companies inside the corporation makes it tough. 
Just do your job, keep records if things start to get off track or weird so you have data for HR  There are no real ‘open door’ policies 
Pay is so-so as the DFW cost of living has gone up.  Pay seems to be inline with other companies.  
Time off/PTO was painless.
Benefits package is pretty decent.

This place is great!  Houston is flying critical patient's all over the Southern US in a King Air 200 plane.  Really sick patients.  Great Protocols.  Autonomous work environment (can't talk to just anyone at 25,000 feet).  Opportunities to travel for education and other job assignments on your off days if you want!  Company paid certifications and licensing.  Company paid time off, holiday pay, overtime pay.  Working 36 hour week and a 48 hour week each payroll.  Lot's of time off.  Great clinical staff!  Great Pilots!  You must come and give this place a try!  Looking for a good fit!

Its a critical job.  Your actions can save or risk a life.  Very Very stressful.

The company penny pinches everything.  Charge the patient mass quantities of money.  The expectation is that you will give up your whole life for the "thrill of the save".  They sit in the background and suck up the money.  This company is owned by a Holding company in New York city.  KKR is probably a nice place to work, as that is where all the money goes. 

The great part of the job is helping people who are in need!

The worst part is feeling like you are being pimped out.  And like most of those gals, you get very little of the green.

No room for advancement and pay is not on par with the competition. Several attempts have been made to increase pay for me and my colleagues, but has been disregarded by company leadership. Experience is disregarded during the hiring process and the most experienced employees start on the bottom of the pay chart. The management is lining their own pockets with bonuses while pay remains below average for the industry. Not a bad way to get on the ladder, but don't stay for long expecting to move up. It'll never happen.

As they grow by leaps, the culture is shifting away from what works, involving the very model that works and makes it great to crossing teams members into the side of the house they have no business having input totally disrupting the streamlined system of stay in your lane....
To put it simply, GMR is slowly becoming the disgustingly run company Air Methods and it's a very sad day in HEMS.
