Vantaggi

Possible experience with good companies. Some people who train with the scheme end up at some decent companies to be placed at, more often than not you will be sent to the middle of nowhere to a company you have no interest in.

Svantaggi

FDM promise the world to get you through the door, you are then trapped in a two year contract where you have to jump through hoops and be geographically flexible. Low salary for these two years (there were months I had to chase my salary and expenses). Once you are out on whatever site FDM try to send you to, you are essentially dead to them until you need a new contract. Any HR issues are ignored and account managers are rude and lie to avoid having to deal with situations.

Vantaggi

It is a job that pays.

Svantaggi

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.
