      Pros

      FDM can set you up with roles in well respected companies, potentially jump starting your career in IT.

      Cons

      No sick pay.Minimum holiday leave + no pay for bank holidays (which are forced) You have 17 days to choose yourself. Very little support on site. Terrible training where they saddle you with £20,000 of debt. No thought or consideration for you as an individual. You are a commodity - a cow for milking. Lots of graduates have not been lucky with placement and have been beached/ kicked around/lied to and down right exploited.

      I’m extremely sorry to hear that you do not feel valued and that you don’t think the training was useful. Our people are the most important asset and are our business which is why we invest a significant amount of resources into helping graduates launch their careers. The training is fully funded by FDM and, like any business, FDM needs to realise a return on its investment. This is why the two-year bond is in place –allowing the fees to be paid back only on the very rare occasion that the contract is broken. The vast majority of FDM consultants enjoy successful and lucrative careers. Your comment about being lied to worries me greatly. Honesty and integrity are core values for me and, therefore, if you believe that anyone at FDM lied to you or lied to any of your FDM colleagues I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further so that I can personally investigate. Please come and see me or email Jonathan.Young@fdmgroup.com

      Pros

      Working here can potentially provide you with opportunities and get you in the door for sectors you wouldn't be able to get into yourself Access to a lot of information and learning material

      Cons

      My main frustration with this company comes from the account managers, the people in charge of placing you after you have finished training. I have found a few of them (not all) to be rude and unprofessional and I think this culture is something management really need to do something about. Upon finishing training I've found there is a very harmful trend of placement interviews and opportunities all going to the same people. There are trainees in the company who have finished their training, been with the company for 3 months and have not yet had a single interview while others I have seen others get 5/6 interviews within a few weeks. When I took this up with the management, I was told they are aware but speaking with the account managers it is clear to me this is not the case. Communication between account managers and trainees is very very poor.

      We take all feedback seriously and I’m sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your interaction with the account management team. Our people are the most important part of FDM and if you feel that anyone treated you unfairly, please email andy.brown@fdmgroup.com so that I can personally look into this.
