Pros

I have left FDM last year but here is FDM in a nut shell. - The company is good if you are willing to do whatever it takes to get your first job.

Cons

- Must be flexible in relocating in any part of the country. - Pushed into job roles that you know nothing about. - You are not given a job description when offered opportunities to be put forward for. - Very difficult to book your holidays. - The environment is very much like going back to kinder garden, no flexibility on when you want to take breaks, go lunch, constantly monitored as if you are not trusted. - Your voice/views/opinions are never heard and generally not considered that your opinion maybe worth while. - Low pay. - No garenteed job. - Very policy driven compared to most working environments. This may make you feeling like your controlled far to much and not treated equally amongst other staff.

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.
