Vantaggi

Good way to get your career started if you’re fresh out of uni and want to get on the career ladder. You can make the most out

Svantaggi

They say it costs £20,000 for your training but it’s really not that great, then you get sent off to a client and you’re not really sure what you’re doing. The courses are a bit all over the place. And you have to stay with them for a minimum of two years otherwise you can be fined and owe them for the training. There is a cool off period where you get to decide if you want to stay on the course but you only have two weeks to decide once you’ve accepted the offer if you would like to no longer do it. You also don’t get a say which client you go with and where you end up so you could either stay somewhere local to you or end up far side of Scotland or all the way down south. It was a few years ago since I worked there so it may be different nowadays but that’s my experience anyway.

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.
