      I’m very sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy your experience with FDM. We appreciate that the programme may not suit everyone, which is why we spend time upfront going through the model and all the terms and conditions, during the assessment process. We present the whole programme including the two-year bond which is a commitment by FDM and you. There is a 2 week ‘cooling off’ period after starting for you to really work out if FDM is the right career move for you. The training is fully funded by FDM and, like any business, FDM needs to realise a return, this is why the two-year bond is in place. The vast majority of FDM consultants progress to enjoy successful and rewarding careers. I’m really sorry that it didn’t work out for you though. If you have any more feedback, please feel free to email me directly at andy.brown@fdmgroup.com Andy Brown – Chief Commercial Officer

      Getting Back to Business Program

      Pros

      This is an excellent program. The FDM business model is fantastic. It's fair. They train you and mentor you for several weeks and in return you work for a modest salary for 2 years. They are open and honest about this throughout. There are three streams, Graduates, Ex-Forces are Getting Back to Business. You get to meet really interesting people from different walks of life. It's inspirational. FDM takes people who are capable but for whatever reason have been overlooked in the open jobs market. They take you and make you marketable. Most people on my program have been placed. The senior team and trainers really care about the program and the directors walk the floor. They are hands on. The company is dynamic and energetic. I've had a long career break and being in this environment has made me feel so optimistic. The company have a real social conscience, its sincere. Yes they make a profit but it's not only about that. Their business model is slightly different.

      Cons

      Be prepared to work hard. No work life balance during training you will have to put the hours in. Interviews will mean you may be pulled out of course making it hard to focus. The IT system configuration could be more user friendly given its an IT consultancy could be more slick to match the fancy office. The expenses process would be better replaced with a flat weekly bursary saving on administrative overhead. You may be interviewing for a role which is not clearly documented as account managers do not always provide a job specification so may at times be tough to pitch yourself accurately. Carving out your career will be your responsibility, their main aim is to get you placed asap. If you expect to pick and chose the roles you may be disappointed.

      FDM is a company that cares more about the money than it does it's employers.

      Pros

      The good thing that comes out of FDM is the connections and contracts they have. Also some of the trainers do care about giving you a good education so you are prepared for the workforce.

      Cons

      -Pay is horrible -No Training while on site - They always mess up your check so you have to constantly make sure you getting paid correctly
