Pros

Training provided for 16 weeks

Cons

* after the 16-weeks, your 2-years contract starts. * salary is misleading. They promise you $50k in the interview, but offer letter states $35.6K yea + daily bonus of $61 “IF YOU WORK”. * not guaranteed that you find a work after training, therefore you only getting minimum wage. * still stuck by the contract and can’t work elsewhere. * placement anywhere within the U.S regardless of living expenses. * even though $50 is a very low pay for a college graduate in a career that has a median salary of $75k. * if you decide to quit in the 2-years, you will have to pay $30k which is cost of training.

Pros

- They were supportive, and my account manager was professional and friendly. He is thoughtful and even reached out after I had left. - I liked the rigorous assessment centre - Good class sizes, built a good rapport with everyone and still in touch with many today

Cons

- I was an exceptional case (from those I know at FDM), in that I started on the client site before I had completed my training. Therefore I felt nervous about my abilities to deliver high quality code, especially as I didn't have prior experience of coding in the particular language that I was working in. - Training can be a bit full-on, but it is good for keeping it in your mind.
