Too little pay

Pros

Good if you do not have CS degree, they get your foot in the door with big name clients. I tried to get interviews before FDM and I wouldn't even get a call for an interview because I had 0 years of experience and a nonrelated degree. I switched careers during the pandemic and figured ill take the pay cut for the two-year contract. Their business model worked for me because I don't have responsibilities besides myself, if I had any dependents it would've been a lot more stressful. You get 15 pto days

Cons

You get $15 an hour while in training up until you get placed, then you begin your salary. And lots of people in my training did not get placed right after training, some never got placed and only made 15 an hour. The pay is very very low for the industry. Anyone with a CS degree should be making double what they pay for the salary. They also don't adjust pay for where you're placed. if you are placed in NYC or Atlanta your pay is the same. Look at the salaries reported and FDM does not compare.

Pros

- The training program is practical and at a relatively fast pace, which means you can improve your technical skills to a great extent with in 2-3 months. PowerBI, ETL, SQL server which are all highly applicable in the real world work. - I got placement secured with KPMG about 3 weeks before the training finished. It’s an excellent opportunity for me, as I do know it’s hard to get a formal consult position as a graduate in such a big company. - Staff are all friendly and helpful. Especially the trainer, they are all professional, patient and responsible. Christophe and Ian work late with our cohort to solve our problems, appreciated a lot.

Cons

Hmm, I didn’t find anything as a con for me. The relocation could be one but currently we are all WFH because of Covid. Regarding the pay, it’s better that my previous company so I’m satisfied too.
