Pros

-Easy Application and hiring process -Provide Training -Not Terrible Pay

Cons

This a software contracting firm, which is a nice way to say they are a tech temp agency. They will over promise and then severely under deliver. I worked for them for 2 years, even picked up and moved locations. I landed a contract with Citigroup and things went well for the first 2 years. Then Citi cut funding, and I was released back to FDM. I spent one month on the bench doing everything that was expected of me, and I interviewed when contracts opened up. One month in, out of the blue with no warning, I was told they were terminating me because they did not have any work coming up for my skillset. And as a reminder, my skillset was what they trained me to do. Like I had any control. Don't waste your time. Even if you are desperate, there are plenty of these dollar-store contracting firms out there and this one really does not care about their employees long term. They will over promise then under deliver. I said that twice to make sure it sinks in.

Pros

They pay you similar to minimum wage and train you. If you crack the client interview, you'll get contract with the client. Your payroll will run through FDM. Nice place to start if you are early in your career. Also, you get to learn and there's a chance to go full-time with either the client or FDM after your contract expires.

Cons

Getting paid minimum wage honestly is pretty bad (before you are placed on a client site) and the client site package is also barely enough to get you through your monthly expenses.
