Vantaggi

It is easy to get into, though, considering the practices of the company I doubt this will help many jobless people.

Svantaggi

STAY AWAY from this company. It sells dreams to 'consultants' it employs (that don't ever become realities) and acts as a recruitment agency with the intent of using you for their own profitable gain. The company is easy to get into as they want you to join their training scheme with the ability to blackmail you for the £20,000 cost of it if you decide to leave. You can't leave the company until 2 years of service - with or without them finding any work for you. You can be stuck without a job going into the FDM office (purely to avoid getting fined for the training). You have to wait 90 days to get a job before they let you free - they don't make leaving easy though. Training is substandard and not worth the cost. Get a masters instead, at least then you know there will be standards set and a fair course to join. Not a shady training scheme like this one.

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.
