Comments: Landmark is owned by the same people who own Vanguard, and they share a floor of this building. The staff seemed very friendly and honest, but since I was told that the most I can expect from them is $16 per hour, I don't plan on taking long-term assignments with them. Check-cashing is only available for a fee from a nearby bank. This is an odd contrast with Custom, who provide check cashing cards, especially since both agencies have their payroll accounts with Republic Bank.
