Comments:
I didn't get to the point of accepting any jobs through Winston Staffing because the "agent" I dealt with was so off-the-charts insane that I almost had a heart attack from the way she treated me. She was screaming at me, yelling at me, trying to force me to say I wanted a legal job when I didn't, and worse. What does "worse" include? Well...she tried to convince me that, since I was having a problem at the time with an African American boss, that maybe I'd been a White slave owner in the Deep South in ANOTHER INCARNATION, and the work problems I was experiencing constituted "payback." Whoa!!!! What a nut! I'd never recommend Winston TO ANYBODY!

Note that all reviews are individual contributions and do not represent the opinion of the site administrator. They have not been independently verified, so there is nothing to stop someone from posting a pack of lies. Some agencies with great reviews may be really bad, and some agencies with bad reviews may be really great. As with everything online, be careful and don't believe everything you read.
