- can't pick your tech stack curriculum
- you're learning a new concept everyday for 10-12 weeks, so training is INTENSE
- job placement is not guaranteed
- trainers are associates who completed the Revature curriculum (good and bad)
I finished the 12-week curriculum in Java/Angular/AWS. After training you go into staging to wait for client interviews and brush up your skills. 8 days after entering staging I was furloughed along with 100 other associates; I never even got the chance at an interview. I'm sure the furlough was partially because of the economy and a tech hiring freeze, but Revature also lost their major client Infosys due to sending poorly trained associates to projects. And I'll admit, even though I passed the curriculum I definitely did not feel like Revature set me up to be successful with a client.
Revature pumps people out of training to send them to clients, it's how they make money. I knew this going into it BUT I had hopes that my training would be better quality then what it was.
