Pros

I got placed on site at UBS my 5th week at FDM. Fdm has not only helped me excel in my career, but also improve my interpersonal and communication skills. The training is very challenging, as it is very fast paced and you are also expected to go to interviews while you are in training. However, this fast paced environment comes in play when you are placed onsite, as your work onsite is equally as challenging if not more. This is what I love about FDM the most, this challenge constantly thrives me to improve myself a little more everyday. I have been onsite about 4 months now, and when I look back to the person I was when I walked in through the doors of FDM to now, I realized that I am glad I made the choice to apply to FDM. All the trainers, managers and account managers are extremely friendly and helpful! They are always there to help out, even when you are on site, they make sure to reach out to you regarding your experience.

Cons

No downside! I have had an amazing experience at FDM!

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.
