Pros

You will learn a lot here and you get training that companies want. They also help with what you need to do in interviews and how you should dress for a company to look professional. Its a great place to go to right out of college and if you like to travel you get the possibility to go places you never been before!

Cons

Come if you don't have many expenses and can afford it. If you don't like it below 50 degrees don't come in the winter time.

Pros

The training program is essentially a supercharged college semester, focused entirely on developing one's technical and soft skills. In 10 weeks I've learned more than during my entire tenure at university. I graduated from college unsure of myself, and through Revature I've gained confidence in my technical prowess and professional. Colleges do their best to stay up-to-date, but often fall behind, especially in IT. Revature prides itself on teaching the most modern languages, frameworks, and tools currently in use in industry, giving you a serious edge over other entry-level candidates. At the end of the training, Revature also puts you in contact with legit companies for contracts, so you can immediately put your newly-honed skills to use and begin building up your resume (as well as making money)

Cons

Yes, it's intense. All day, every day, for 10 weeks, you will be baptized in fire. You will be taught new skills, and then subsequently be evaluated on your mastery of them. Constant interviews, quality control Q&A sessions, exams, and projects will strain your brain to the max. But in the end, it's #worth. When you find yourself effortlessly talking the talk at the end of the training, you'll be glad you endured.

Pros

After college I felt like I was missing many important technologies that were necessary in the workforce. Revature teaches all those technologies along with other skills that are necessary in the work force. Revature provides excellent housing. The housing is spacious and contains everything needed including washer/dryer and dishwasher.

Cons

The training covers a lot of material and can get overly intensive and be very stressful at times. You don't know where you will end up until you get a contract.
