Horrific - Recensione dipendente - Java Developer presso FDM Group

Stay away… because although they may seem reasonable during the first 14 days (grace period), you will (if stupid/lazy enough to stay) afterwards find that FDM are a bunch of ruthless, unprofessional and criminal minded group of creatures. You are ‘trained’ (For 21k) by trainees who couldn’t get placed—some of the time and the rest of your training hours you spend self-studying (for FDM “qualifications”) , they treat you like children and will threaten you and lie. Clients take on FDM for the mere fact that consultants actually agree when they sign their employment agreement that they will work ridiculously long unpaid over-time hours (they don’t show you this clause in the training agreement, but before you get place you must sign the employment contract which you would have in effect already signed via the training agreement -if that makes sense). In theory one can work for their clients after the 2.5 years- but only if they are willing to pay a ridiculous amount. You can get place anywhere, with anyone and surprisingly doing anything (not related). Any fool can get in and they even give you £500 if you recommend someone who joins (and if they feel you can’t cope –as had happened to a poor female colleague of mine- they terminate the agreement and ask you for the full training fees) … stay away. In conclusion their model is set up to exploit and milk as much as possible from poor graduates. Stay away. By the way: every single positive review here is by their sales team (who make a hell-load of money from consultants) and are fake as well as the “awards” which they bribe/buy which may come as a surprise. Stay away please.
