I'm not kidding when I said my experience there felt like a cult. With all that said there are some staff and alumni that do acknowledge the bad side of codesmith and the misleading marketing. But in my personal opinion, those are out liners .

I think it's about 10% of alumni and it's because they credit Codesmith with changing their lives. And I don't argue it didn't. Something can change your live and not be perfect. The people that just can't acknowledge that are going to have a lot of problems later on in their careers, lots of struggles with progression. Codesmith is far too early to see that yet. With $130K salaries come layoffs at the drop of a hat, and other negative things that will need to be confronted.
