Pros

* High salary for apprenticeship (start 32k, +2k every year) * Great place to learn * Many resources to help you in various areas

Cons

* Degree is useless - don't expect to be taught much programming or computer science skills * Very team dependant. I've known some managers who didn't even know what an apprentice is until the employee joined. They were then fired after 6 months after recieving little support. However my current manager has given me more than enough support. * As such a higher level of baseline knowledge is helpful here - you might struggle if you are inexperienced at coding

- Not very supportive to someone who has little experience in the field. - Not a real OJT, they basically threw me in the field and expected me to know what I was doing - Treated me more as an intern than an apprentice - Manager was not as helpful as they could have been
