Pros

Rewarding and interesting work Always challenges to figure out Deployment to major disasters

Cons

Can be very demanding Essentially on call 24/7 If you have holes in your volunteer coverage, you have to be the one to pick up the slack. A lot of the ability of making it at this job depends a lot on how the previous DPM did. I was fortunate to have my predecessor leave things in good shape with relationships with volunteers and partners. I have had colleagues that weren't so fortunate and they walked into a dumpster fire of volunteers who have quit or are angry, and burned bridges with EMA and FDs. It was so much work for them to get things back on track.
