Cassandra, If you're getting paid the fees you have agreed on with companies, no matter what their reputation here, then you should take jobs from whatever companies you like.
When I first started coming to Not Rot I saw bad things about one company that has sent me TONS of business...and met my fees, which are not low. Most of the comments were how that company never met anyone's fees and was offering low-ball fees when they called. I've never had that problem with that specific company and have continued to take work from them.
My point is that you should weigh your own experience with a company against what you read on the boards. Use the boards to help you decide whether to work with a new company, but don't throw out your regular companies that meet your fees and pay on time just because of what you read on the boards.
