Pluspunten

Potential to be placed at a good client including most investment banks, however you are not guaranteed a good placement, there are some really crap ones too. If you really can't get a job and will take anything then this is probably for you, if you can make it through the unpaid training. Not guaranteed a job afterwards though.

Minpunten

Where to start... - The training (if you can call it that) is terrible. You might get lucky and get a good trainer but chances are you'll be taught by an ex trainee who couldn't get a job so was forced to teach. - The whole running of the company is pretty corrupt and you'll feel powerless after you sign the contract. Unless you can afford £20k... - The sales team who find you the jobs and manage client relationships care about one thing, money. Trainees are literally money to them. - Very unprofessional management and if you do something to annoy them, like reject opportunities, they'll do whatever they want to mess with you. - It's quite likely that you'll get a job which is unrelated to what you went in for, though you may get lucky. - They try to make out like it's really professional, but it just isn't.

Pluspunten

It is a job that pays.

Minpunten

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.
