Comments:
For the first few months I worked with Accurate the staff was
more than sweet and supportive. They listened (kind of) to my needs
and sent me to Hearst Corp. Closer to my entertainment background,
unfortunatly some strangeness has happened and suddenly I am in the
Morgan Stanley pool...lots of work but not really what my background
is. The mid-town office, handy for payroll pickup, was suddenly
closed with no pre warning and now either the check are mailed or
one has to schlep to Wall Street during lunch...very uncool. There
have also been recent screw ups with the payroll causing a week without
a check...the check was made up but still...the point of working my
brains out doing data entry is because I am in serious need of money...
no real apology...no hand patting...guess I'll find another agency!
