Comments:
This agency has given me excellent rates $25-$35/hour
but I've had to leave because of the psychotic clients
which I've had to work for.. the first client was giving me
25/h but I was working approximately 70+ hours a week
7 Days a week, I voiced my concerns about this and explained
that it was not mentioned to me when I was hired, they ignored
me (and since the money was good) I stayed untill the end of
the assignment, after this assignment my second assignment
consisted of simple VB programming for a NYC Law firm
the manager for whom I was working for had me code various
apps, none of which were ever used or were going to be used
It seems as though he only wanted me there because of the way
I looked, I was told by a receptionist that the man I was working
for had a history of harrasing temps, and left soon after things
got a little weirder. The money is good at this agency but
STAY CLEAR!
