Any bootcamp? No. The best ones? Yes you absolutely still can. The one I went to is independently audited every year. For the 2022 remote full time session. 80% hired within 180 days with median salary of 127,000. 85% of those making over 100k. https://cirr.org/data https://s

Codesmith is pretty controversial in the industry outside of the bootcamp-bubble - not that it's bad, just that it's polarizing in both directions. [Reference for controversy (it's an old post but still an ongoing controversy)](https://www.reddit.com/r/TechLA/comments/b7xl98/codesmith_coding_bootcamp_scam_beware/)
I know their program extremely well and I usually recommend it for ambitious people who can commit 9am to 8pm weekdays + saturdays and who are typically successful already in another professional career.
But it's not a place for everyone who just wants to make $100K and thinks getting into Codesmith is the golden ticket. The people who don't get jobs often feel like they shouldn't have gone in the first place because it wasn't the right program for them.
