Comments:
This agency used to be very good, but lately they seem to have a
problem paying people correctly and on time. They have made a number
of mistakes on my paycheck, some of which I was fortunate enough to
catch. They sent me to work for Chase (270 Park Ave.) which was a
nightmare. I did not last long there because I did not kiss butt
well. I worked for two seperate supervisors who I felt were
incompetent. I complained to Cindy & Dee (at Choice) several times
but it seems as if they do not care. They shuffle people in and out
of this bank like they were cattle. They pretend to be on your side
and run back to Chase and tell them everything that you said. If you
are a serious DTP/ Graphic's person, I advise you to go to an agency
that has clients that would treat you with dignity & respect and not
ask you to do administrative/ clerical/ secretary work!!!!!
