Pros

The FDM training academy provided a great learning environment, with trainers offering one to one support when needed. FDM also provided me with valuable training in professional skills and prepared me for what to expect when interviewing. They worked with my strengths and ensured that I was put forward for the job roles that best suited my ability. FDM’s experience has marked a before and an after in my professional life as a means to kick off my career in a way I would not have been able to do myself. I would fully recommend joining FDM as I found it to be an exciting experience after university to be working in an industry I am so passionate about!

Cons

I wouldn't class this as a con, but some might not like the fact that you have to be geographically flexible. This has never been an issue for me as it is exciting to be able to be put on projects in various locations with one of FDM's major blue-chip clients.

Pros

It is a job that pays.

Cons

They will promise you opportunities that don't exist. The company they contract you to will promise you work that you will not be assigned. I was a Java Consultant with a masters degree in Math and certificate in full stack and I was shoved into a manual testing position that required zero coding and constantly dangled automation in front of my face. When I was asked to look at Selenium, I studied it in some of the copious amounts of downtime i had and was reprimanded during the next meeting for 'wasting company time'. I moved from Texas to New Jersey for my first position. After contracts with the company were terminated, I was pulled off my assignment only to be abruptly fired for "lack of geoflexibility" despite willingness to move to several places they do business including NYC and even Denver. There is no accountability from them as the only response they give is "the decision is final". There is no way to appeal a blatant lie. Their company has no integrity and side with business majors over people that know how chemicals and physics and electrical components work just seem like bad life decisions. They will say you can reapply but they won't hire you. They'd full of it at every angle.
