MGA travel Southern CA


Has anyone or does anyone travel with them? How did you find the pay and housing.

I am 3 weeks into a 13 week mistake. I have never worked so much for so little.
They don't even include health insurance. They want you to only live in a studio apartment because they are too cheap to have the travel nurse live in a one bedroom. I have friends who are travelling with CC and American Mobile and their housing is
always one bedroom and free health insurance.

I can't wait for this assignment to end, this company will never see or hear from me again. They are too greedy and want a very large profit margin.

They also like to "hound" you on your days off. Their Per Diem division is always pushing you to pick up extra shifts.

My best advice to any RN's out there is to avoid these people like the plague!!

Oooo, thanks for the headsup! I was going to use them a few months ago, but decided against it. I worked with the per Diem in NorCal and they were pretty nice, but I guess travel is not the same.
