Vantaggi
Internal staff of FDM will only be nice to you if everything about your placement goes well (e.g. good feedback from line manager on site, no request to HR). everyone know that feedback from line manager is not always 100% truth, this is same for employees working in any organisatoin if you are unlucky to meet a crazy line manager
Svantaggi
- Internal staff from FDM take the line manager's feedback too seriously, they only believe it is the consultant's issue if the feedback is bad. Often, they do not share the feedback back to consultant and will gossip behind within themselves. - do not join FDM if you have competitive advantage in your portfolio and yourself in general, even if the FDM sugar coat everything about their company during the start. this is because FDM likes to "bulk sell" their consultants to client (eg insurance co, banks) at a go after they identify their "star consultant(s)". you do not need to be smart to understand such bulk sell promote discusting aftermath as consultants can be allocated to roles with varying ranks in the same batch. In client side, the discusting aftermath will breeds jealousy and political game. - many of the internal staff likes to criticise and pin point fault of the consultants if there is issue e.g. (even if your line manager is racist to you in client side, the internal staff will criticise you for not being open-minded and not wanting to challenge for the better, instead of giving you support) fdm staff need to know they have never met their line manager in the life and not know how tough it is to be at client side.
