FDM Group reviews

Some background: I joined FDM two months ago following my graduation from university. I majored in business. Like many others, I was hesitant to join FDM when I was first offered the opportunity due to reading the number of negative reviews on this site and the somewhat low compensation. But I decided to give it a shot as we do have a two week grace period to quit if desired. And I'm glad I did. What it comes down to is that FDM opens up opportunities in the industry that you otherwise would not be considered for without the right training, experience, or connections. The assignments available are generally not entry level jobs and FDM's training prepares you for that. This allows us to advance faster up the corporate ladder so to speak. All of FDM's clients are large blue chip companies. As of right now, consultant compensation in Canada is $40K first year, and $45K second year with benefits. Decent, especially considering the number of unpaid internships in the market just a year ago. Overall, my recommendation is to take this opportunity if you are just entering the job market with little experience or practical skill. This is an investment towards your future. I joke around with my colleagues that my FDM contract is my master's degree, except I'm being paid and practically guaranteed a job at the end of it. FDM's training is fast paced, so be ready to learn a lot. Culture is great.

Good way to kick start your career if you have trouble finding a job elsewhere. Good list blue chip clients to work with.
