Vantaggi

Good if you do not have CS degree, they get your foot in the door with big name clients. I tried to get interviews before FDM and I wouldn't even get a call for an interview because I had 0 years of experience and a nonrelated degree. I switched careers during the pandemic and figured ill take the pay cut for the two-year contract. Their business model worked for me because I don't have responsibilities besides myself, if I had any dependents it would've been a lot more stressful. You get 15 pto days

Svantaggi

You get $15 an hour while in training up until you get placed, then you begin your salary. And lots of people in my training did not get placed right after training, some never got placed and only made 15 an hour. The pay is very very low for the industry. Anyone with a CS degree should be making double what they pay for the salary. They also don't adjust pay for where you're placed. if you are placed in NYC or Atlanta your pay is the same. Look at the salaries reported and FDM does not compare.

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.
