Pluspunten

-Learning a lot about the fundamentals of different programming languages. -Guide you through your Job searching process. -Hopefully refer you to a blue chip company. -I don't have much experience working in a company and I was told FDM focuses on fulling in the gap between university and employment.

Minpunten

-It's really stressing. The training sessions are every weekday from 9:00am to 5:30am and we have to learn new material for each class. I feel like quitting everyday, but it's not really for marks, so my advice is to do your best and ask for help when needed. -Really small environment. -Your salary will be low. The client company probably pay FDM $20,000 annually, for the two years, for referring to that company. -If you feel like you have the ability to get a job on your own, I don't really recommend you to join FDM as it can take up a lot of your time.

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.
