This is one of the best known bootcamps, and got acquired by WeWork. Of course the internships and full time positions are reported together. 53% of online grads and 45% of in person grads got internships that paid $27/hr on average.

Makes sense. Shirty that they aren't upfront about this. I've mentored at a couple bootcamps and not everyone graduates able to jump into a role where they are expected to really provide value. The bootcamps are just too short.

Not surprised. The good bootcamps are the ones that only get paid if you get a job (they take X% of your first year salary) (like App Academy, for example). This bootcamp looks like it just charges tuition that would work out to $52,000 per year. Pretty much just another for-profit school, and I sort of doubt this one is even accredited as a school (disclaimer - I have no idea whether they are or not, didn't check).

I don't think they are. They just had to pay a $375k fine for misrepresenting outcomes and not operating with certain licenses.
