FDM Group reviews

I was trained by former students of the training program who were trained by former students of the training program. So in other words you are trained by people with no formal experience in industry and they charge you £20k for the training. I never felt like a FDM employee once placed on a client site. The only contact I got from the company was a news letter once a month boasting about how great the company is doing. There was no concern of my welfare over the two years placed on the client site. The only revenue stream for FDM is are the employees who are placed on site but FDM doesn't acknowledge the hardwork consultants put in; such as long hours at work with no overtime pay. As an employee of FDM you get NO BENEFITS and NO BONUS. While everyone you work with onsite reap the rewards of the work put in over a year. You are not paid when you take leave, bank holidays or if you are sick.

Looking at other reviews, I'm afraid I can't really add much new to the mix *Low morale - general sense of unease in the London office that opportunities are few. This could just be due to trading conditions *Poor level of training - I did not expect to have such little instructor feedback *No communication - It's hard to know what's really going on, except for the inspirational speech at the party, which makes me wonder if the management are talking about the same company. *Dismissals - what's the point in being the largest IT graduate recruiter if half of people 'leave by mutual agreement' or get sacked?
