Any idea what the pay rates for basics are? OT? ect..
I'd imagine that like most private ambulance companies, their pay probably blows cottage cheese for EMT personnel. I don't think it's much better for Paramedics (the few that they can actually use in that role). I've not seen much of them in years, so I don't know what their current pay scale is. 10 years ago, it was probably in the $8.50 - $9/hr range.
I know another IFT company, in the Bay Area, that I used to work for pays $9 an hour plus $10 per call. It's pretty bad pay, but the companies know there are a bunch of people willing to work it to gain experience.
I don't know how it is up in LA, but I haven't had any OT in over 2 months - and that includes 24s not getting paid in full.
