      Pros

      There are plenty of other people in the same boat as you Free sandwiches at lunch time

      Cons

      (as mentioned by others, comments I agree with) Very high risk - You have to train for 3 months and then wait for upto 3 months for a job. You can only leave if no job is found after 6 months & still have to go in every day for no money Lack of respect for people An overall negative environment to be in Training staff donot train but more or less "facilitate" You can learn everything taught at home because they're going to tell you to google it anyway. The amount worth of the services are surplussed, it is no where near the amount people can be fined

      Pros

      FDM gave me the chance to start a great career in Marketing and Communication in Germany and I really enjoy working with a young, dynamic and international team that managed to make FDM the eleventh fastest growing company in Europe! The cross-border teamwork makes my job great every day! Thank you FDM!

      Cons

      There is nothing I don't like about FDM! The Marketing team in the UK makes me feel great. Regular video conferences, phone calls and all the trips to Brighton and London make me feel like being there every day!

      Ok for new college graduates looking to start their careers (and you CAN'T find a job)

      Pros

      -Provides a free training program in SQL, Oracle, UNIX, VBA, ITIL, and project management * -Provides an opportunity to work with blue chip firms (e.g UBS, RBS, HSBC etc) -Provides training in application support, java development, and project management * Training is free only if you decide to wave the fee as stated in the contract

      Cons

      - Training can last 3-4 months (depends on your concentration) and it is UNPAID - Much of the training can be completed online - NO guarantee that you will be place with their clients after training - PMO trainees rarely are placed in business/project analyst roles* - Sales team do not communicate well with trainees** - Salary is below the market rate In addition to the 3-4months of training, you contracted to remain with the company for 90 days (extra 3 months) to be placed with their clients. Those three months commence once you have been "signed off" from training. They tend to lag on this process which is completely UNFAIR because you may wait a month before you are officially signed off. *FDM is essentially an IT service company. A lot of their clients send job requests for people in the java development and application support training program. Rarely, a BA/PM role comes across especially entry-level (0-1 year experience). PMO trainees can seek additional training in the java development and application support program to boost up their resumes, but if you have absolutely NO interest in the technical side then it will be awhile before you are placed. **You have to be extremely vocal towards sales team to be place in a role that fits you. PMO trainees can be put forth an app support roles--even if you are NOT interested.
