I am an emergency manager in the United States, AMA

r/

Off the bat, I have not worked for FEMA, so I’d have no specific insight on current events regarding the agency, but I have worked for private companies, myself, not for profits, and more as an EM. AMA…

    What does the job entail and how did you get into that career?

    I have never even heard of this job before but have handled emergencies for my job. So a few questions:

    1. Is this contract work? Does an emergency happen and you get hired quickly to manage the solution? Or are you on a retainer and ready to jump into action on a clients behalf at any time?
    2. What is an example of an emergency you’ve managed?
    3. How’s the pay? I feel like I’d be pretty good at this tbh

    What’s the worst imaginable emergency the United States could have happen?

    Is it truly an EMP/power outage for 1+ week?
