Pros

-paid training (minimum wage) but comes at a cost as you are locked into a 2-year contract

Cons

-contract clauses that require you to stay working for them for 2 years way below the average software engineer salary (try to leave and you'll be charged a 5 figure penalty, basically indentured servitude) -training is comparable to Udemy, and that's an understatement -horrible pay, most reputable boot camps provide a higher Return of Investment than Revature -do your research before you decided to sign 2 years of your life away. There's plenty of other bootcamps that help you "get your foot through the door"

Pros

You get paid to learn a full stack. If you have no work experience or are transitioning in terms of career, it is perfect. You as an associate are mapped to a big client. Projects are extremely satisfying. 10-day training trial before you sign the contract.

Cons

Pay is minimum wage. 2-year contract. Relocation is a must depending on your client. Batch that you enter could be different than what you are expecting. You need to work outside of work hours if you want to get everything done during training.
