Thoughts on coding dojo from your experience?

I'm also not familiar enough with them. I have worked with a few alumni who struggled to get jobs and they were not quite prepared for legit jobs right out of Coding Dojo and I spent a lot of time working with them to get them ready. So they are quite a large program at this point so I expect a wide range of outcomes. Based on their anecdotal reputation, it seems like they are fairly expensive, not doing anything particularly better or worse than others, but generally aren't fantastic. The biggest criticism I feel barely qualified to make is that I think their bar for entry is too low and that contributes to the above (very large program, large variance of outcomes). So like all my advice, I would consider them along with all your options and do extensive background checking. I would not choose them if you get rejected from other bootcamp and accepted here and it's your only option.
