Vantaggi

Gets your foot in the door to get your tech career started During your 2 year contract even if you're let go, you're still paid a base salary of 18000(in your first year, goes to 20k in second I believe) A huge network of other FDMers Access to LinkedIn learning and other benefits to increase your marketability. Play it right and you can network like crazy Huge client base (blue chip companies) including massive fintechs, banks etc.

Svantaggi

2 year contract If you break the 2 year contract you have to pay for the training you received. (£15000) Training is NOT worth the £15000 you get "charged". There are some incredibly bad trainers, you just need to pass their exams(some are relatively easy, some are a bit harder (unix for example) . You can and should use a tonne of googling to get you the knowledge you'll need. Requires a degree through the normal entry (2.2 minimum) Psychometric Tests can be incredibly boring.

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.
