Meh...

I did not think this bootcamp was very good. The learning resources were mixed. Some were out of date with modern coding practice, and most of it is available via codecademy separately at a much lower cost. That said, I found work I'm excited about in the industry explicitly because I'd completed a bootcamp. Whilst the service was in no way impressive, the content was poor overall, and it's quite expensive, I still think it's not a bad idea to do. The positives are the mentor I had, Nathan, was completely excellent, the LMS was generally reliable and easy to use, it's flexible so you can do it as quickly or as slowly as you want, and it's all online so nothing in-person. If you're thinking about doing this, look around first and see if any other bootcamps seem a bit better. These bootcamps are all interchangeable as multiple employers have told me, so just pick one that works for you. Also, please don't trust the overwhelmingly positive reviews because they specifically reach out to their successful students to ask them to write the reviews. That said, they're not awful or anything, just not close to a £4000 offering. However, I suspect this is true across the board for these bootcamps. Edit: Changed to 1 star because they flagged my original review suggesting they aim to take down negative reviews. This is an unethical practice.
