Comments: Watch your back with these people. Will drop you in a second if they suspect the client company is not 100% satisfied with you, and with little warning. Will give you written notice of probation, but will not supply any evidence of your wrong doings -- in other words, it's the client's word against yours.

Upon hearing about my termination, and voicing my concerns about taking care of my financial obligations, his response was "...well, you should have thought about that first..." Whatta prick!
