Default ac compressor kicks on and off every 5 seconds or so

Anyone else have this problem? Went to get the ac serviced over the weekend, correct amount of freon was put in, but they weren't sure what the problem was. Figures this would happen as the weather gets hotter and hotter

I'm not sure where to start first to check the problem, of if I should take it to another shop.

The most common problem with a compressor cycling like that is low freon...Maybe take it to another place to have freon level re-checked??

x2 they might not have put in enough, or you have a leak that wasn't diagnosed.
