Pros

I have worked for FDM for several years now and I am so glad I chose to join the company. I am not from an IT background however joined FDM to train and make a career for myself in Software Testing. I have worked for some of the world's biggest banks, Insurance brokers and retails outlets in various different capacities. I have travelled the globe and worked on some amazing and innovative projects over the years which would not have been possible without the training and opportunities FDM provided me with. The money is good and once you have a few years experience it gets even better with opportunities arising in Team lead/Managerial positions enabling you to take your career to the next level.

Kontras

Not really a con however you need to be geographically flexible with in the UK. (You are told this several times throughout your assessment centre so this did not come as a surprise). If you want to go further afield you can ask to be considered for roles aboard and I know of people being placed in Hong Kong, South Africa, Canada and Australia recently.

Pros

It is a job that pays.

Kontras

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.
