I would take it to another shop or troubleshoot it yourself. You can Rent Vacuum Pumps and Gauge Manifolds from some Auto Parts stores and then do it all yourself.

If you decide to look into DIY. Here's an excellent guide for you to go by that explains the reason for pulling a Deep Vacuum and steps to charge, also explains how your A/C system works if you don't already know to expand your knowledge.

What year car BTW?

Have a good mechanic check that the dryer canister or something else isn't resting on the compressor lines. Something that simple could be causing your problem. Trust me, that's what happened to me with my Integra. Also, ask whoever did your work, if they flushed out all the hoses and put oil in the compressor because if they didn't, your compressor is going to mess up.
