Pros

The people you train with are friendly and helpful.

Cons

They bombard you with a lot of training and expect you to remember it all. They understand it is impossible to learn it all. The exam consists of simple true/false tests that you can work collaboratively in a group to do to pass. The training is an utter waste of time. There is also 0 opportunities for Risk, Regulation and Compliance. We are coming to the end of training and no one has been placed. The group that started a month before us also has not been placed. You will finish training and then wait for 3 months for no job to come, and then will be let go by FDM Group. They are just burning money. There are only Business Analyst roles and PMO roles. No roles for Risk, regulation, and compliance.

Pros

It is a job that pays.

Cons

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.
