Pros & Cons

  • My current managers are fantastic and are always supportive, they provide support in terms of my career growth and allow me to challenge myself.
  • Great environment, everyone is equal, always down for a laugh. Plenty of office events and after work drinks, a very inclusive environment
  • There is a very good support system, in a couple of different ways. For one, you have a cohort of people that are on the same journey while working in similar roles and similar places. They also have support staff around that are there to help for any issue.
  • The support and training you get from FDM
  • Great training program, great trainers.
  • Always meeting new consultants, but going to different clients, it is hard to keep relationships with consultants you meet initially.
  • Repetitive work
  • As a large multi-national there are some annoying processes in place (i.e. things like applying for leave and submitting timesheets)
  • I'd say salary especially as the inflation is pretty high
  • Throughout COVID - not having the ability to catch up with the fellow consultants and peers

Everyone I interact with from FDM that I would consider a manager is good value, easily accessible and pleasant to work with. My on-site line manager is great and I specifically asked to be kept on their team for the foreseeable future.

I'm not struggling but my pay has lagged behind what my experience dictates I should be paid. There is no bonus system.

Training

Training
There was an initial three-month training period which was structured well and had some good content, but a bit of it was things I had already learnt through my bachelor's degree. It did reinforce a lot of what I had learnt at university and helped to build confidence. A specific skill I picked up during this period was learning how to build a Java project using Spring Boot, something I had not done before. As a follow-up they do have quarterly up-skilling sessions, for instance in Q3 this year there were three sessions on quality assurance testing, with hour-long sit-and-learn sessions. These are optional but do offer good value if they are covering something I am less familiar with. On the job I have learnt a lot about the specific programming language I work with, and about general enterprise software development, CI/CD processes and the like.

Very good when it comes to hours, if I need to go to an appointment or something comes up I can move my working hours around as long as I let people know that is happening.
