Pros

You get your foot through the door

Cons

Very unsupportive They don’t care if you’re sick After 2 years they make you feel like you should leave because their business model is only for 2 years. This is because they make maximum money due to low pay in the first 2 years. Even after 2 years the pay is really bad. They keep telling you if it wasn’t for them you wouldn’t be where you are now. In other words FDM is the only Company that would have hired you. That’s what they think of you. They give you mental health problems but advertise themselves on LinkedIn as mental health first aiders Talking to the people team is a waste of time they don’t listen instead tell you if it weren’t for us you wouldn’t be where you are now Consultants do not get treated like staff even through we are. There is a phase we only give this to internal staff on consultants within the company. Some Account managers are bullies, they also make you feel like you begging them for a role when on the beach waiting to be placed. The above is not what I signed up for.

Pros

It is a job that pays.

Cons

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.
