Pros

Some high-profile clients Opportunity to get some very useful experience Good training and qualifications When benched projects can be interesting/ useful

Cons

More like an agency than a consultancy Poor pay whilst training Communication with the company can be poor Reduced salary when 'benched' - not industry standard Some but not a lot of choice regarding clients you will interview for Minimal benefits

Pros

- A good stepping stone to break into IT & Finance sectors - Training is provided at the start of program, and the training coaches seemed quite knowledgeable - Annual Leave is 18 days - Medical benefits are still acceptable, but lacks other benefits like dental and health screening

Cons

- Although training is provided, they use it to justify a two-year bond that keeps you stuck with FDM - Whatever stream you are trained in does not matter, you will get interviews for unrelated roles and you cannot reject the placement if you are offered - First year pay is 3.6k, and second year pay is 3.9k. However, FDM charges their clients almost 9k for our services (this is true!). - No bonuses, no thirteen month bonus, nothing at all. The low pay is all you get. Other agencies give performance bonus to their consultants once their contract is done with the client. - Shady account managers who will force you into renewing your contract with the current client, even if you want to pursue a different role. - The account managers do not care about your career progression, only their commission. In fact, there is no career progression because you are expected to move between clients anyways. - Recent layoffs happening because there are too many consultants waiting but very little client opportunities - No performance feedback sessions, better to ask your client site manager directly to know how you are faring in the job
