Pros

- Connects you to a blue chip company so that you may have a SOLID experience foundation on your resume. - Gives you an opportunity to work in a professional environment right after graduation. - You make great friends and the trainers really care about you understanding and succeeding. - 2 year investment means you are under FDM contract, which means you know the pay you are getting (Not Bad at all for a start), and you are under FDM benefits which are better than most! -Very skilled and professional trainers. - Bottom line is, these people teach you valuable information to prepare you for the IT industry. They care about you succeeding, and they pay us to teach us! We owe it to FDM to recognize their efforts and their HIGH standards. - FDM consultants have an amazing reputation. - In regards to the Head of the Toronto FDM academy, thank you for all you have done.

Cons

- No Biostatistics clients in Toronto YET. - Fast Pace, so you have to be on the ball.

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.
