Wow, shopping may be a little tough for you for a while because I suspect a lot of shops have been cancelled due to flooding and it is likely to be a while before they figure all their locations SHOULD be up and running as usual.
You are doing the right thing about reading through comments. You will find that most companies are reasonable and pay when they say they will. As for decent $, it all depends on your definition of "decent". Most are decent if minimum wage is your goal
. Realistically, though, it is ultimately your experience with the schedulers/editors and clients in your area who will determine what companies you want to work with. You will find here folks who hate or love various of the big companies. I currently like Trendsource but last year they were low on my list of companies I was willing to work with. I used to like working with Bestmark but they now are verrrrrrry low on my list of companies I would accept a job from. I recently did jobs for companies others rave about and I was thoroughly disgusted with them. My favorite companies few are willing to shop for. This is not to avoid telling you anything but rather to tell you that you need to signup with and try a number of companies and see what looks right and feels right to you.
