Thank you for your feedback. Our consultants (including you) are the most important part of our business and it concerns me that you feel FDM does not always deliver what was promised. Given that you are still working with FDM, I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further so that I can personally address your complaints.

Pros

Working here can potentially provide you with opportunities and get you in the door for sectors you wouldn't be able to get into yourself Access to a lot of information and learning material

Cons

My main frustration with this company comes from the account managers, the people in charge of placing you after you have finished training. I have found a few of them (not all) to be rude and unprofessional and I think this culture is something management really need to do something about. Upon finishing training I've found there is a very harmful trend of placement interviews and opportunities all going to the same people. There are trainees in the company who have finished their training, been with the company for 3 months and have not yet had a single interview while others I have seen others get 5/6 interviews within a few weeks. When I took this up with the management, I was told they are aware but speaking with the account managers it is clear to me this is not the case. Communication between account managers and trainees is very very poor.
