FDM is a great place to work

Pros

I enjoy my job. As a trainer FDM has given me the opportunity to broaden the subjects I teach. I have been able to develop my knowledge and skills in areas I have wanted to move into for a long time. This role offers a much greater variety than my previous training roles. Each trainee who joins the FDM Academy in Manchester is coached in all the skills they need to get a placement. This coaching is tailored to the individuals requirements, we receive a lot of positive feedback and thanks, which is rewarding.

Cons

Seasonal peaks and troughs. We are really busy in the summer/autumn teaching lots of new graduates. In the winter/spring it is a bit quiet.

Pros

Having gone through the training stream it became very apparent that FDM rewards the amount of dedication and effort you put into training. I started the training stream as I meant to go on trying to gain as much knowledge as I could whilst always looking for additional opportunities to learn. FDM provided me with these opportunities and also noticed the amount of effort I was putting into my training. Overall, I don't think I would be in a such a good position without the help and training of FDM.

Cons

I can't really think of any downsides to working at FDM, I'm happy with my job and I love working here.

Pros

Ever since joining FDM as a trainee in 2009 I have been offered fantastic opportunities. I have been given the chance to work both on client site as a software tester and in house at FDM as an academy trainer. I have found FDM to be very good at recognising strong performance. I have been rewarded in the past with offers of additional responsibility and exciting projects to work on. I did find these extra tasks challenging but they have allowed me to develop new skills and gain fantastic experience. I have learnt a great deal through working for FDM and they have really allowed me to build the foundations of my career in IT. Without FDM I am not sure where I would have ended up after graduating University.

Cons

In my experience I have nothing negative to say about FDM. I have always enjoyed working there and they have always treated me well.
