Comments:
This agency offers absolutely no benefits whatsoever and they seem to have very few clients. Their biggest client is Winston & Strawn. They say they give a referral bonus if you bring in new temps, this is a lie. They seem to weasel out of that which is a shame because now I am not going to go out of my way to bring any more good temps to this agency.
I am giving my e-mail address and would love to respond to anyone who would like to write me and ask me questions or share their experiences.

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. I take no responsibility for what comes up when you google yourself.
