Comments:
I found Atrium to be a pleasant and professional company. Although I was placed in job that couldn't have been further from my background, I hadn't made any special requests since I just needed some money. The position turned out to be fine; I worked in an investment banking company and was treated well and appreciated in my department. Atrium also pays$10/hr for standby, but don't get sucked into that unless you really need the money and have nothing better to do. I never had any trouble with this company, though.

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.
