Acadian Ambulance Service Incorporated Reviews

What is it like working at Acadian Ambulance Service Incorporated?

Great place to start and retire but not in between.
Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) - Basic in New Orleans:
Pros: the pt contact and the relationship with the people you work with directly as well as the immediate supervisors
Cons: the way the company is run from the main office and just copy pastes how they run the branches instead of allowing the branches to work around the unique challenges each area has. the disconnect that the upper management of the branches have with the way that some areas are run such as making a guy the manager of a area of operations not someone who has worked in the area or has very limited time in the area. the way dispatch is handled with the crews due to not really understanding the areas that they are dispatching (this only applies to the new Orleans area really) due to this lack of knowlage and how hard it can be to get around in a city like new Orleans they put the crews in positions where you are responding to emergencies that at times even with lights and sirens will take almost an hour to get to calls.
Fast-paced and challenging, but rewarding...
Sr. Network Engineer in Lafayette:
Pros: As stressful as this job may be, I take joy in knowing that 1) I am always learning, and 2) I am indirectly helping a multitude of communities around the country, many times in life or death situations.
Cons: C-level management tends to stick with “what has always worked.” There’s something positive to be said for that, but an even balance of nuance is needed.
Mediocre pay, high stress, little down time, low recognition and reward for achievements.
Paramedic Supervisor in Alexandria:
Pros: Job Security, retirement plan
Cons: Management's disconnect with how the field actually operates.
