Metro's owner and family are muti-millionaires and most of his pilots and all of his mechanics are middle class. Unless they are retired from the military. The big issue with asking this question and getting decent answers is that a retired Lt. Colonel or CW4 that works for Metro is making enough to live on and has their medical paid for so why would they be unhappy. They make a wage from Metro, high or low depending on the contract, and they have a slanted view over someone who wasn't in the military. Nothing bad about that but its reality. Likewise if a pilot has been in the EMS business for a while his or her pay is double or triple when they started so life is probably okay for them as they near retirement making way more than when they started. But what about the pilot or mechanic who is 5 years in and is making way less than they should? The mechanic started at $50K and what makes $58, boy that's alot of money in 2021. The benefits are not good compared to other companies. Metro barely matches on the 401K. Vacation is given but you are at the mercy of where you work because it may or may not be covered by other people. The pay should be increased by 30% across the board, by 50% for the maintenance staff. If the military guys don't want it then fine but quit telling the rest of us how great it is.
