The workshops themselves are a bit misleading. Don’t expect the same teaching approach or technical depth if you go through the program

This is a common concern I hear. People think they will get Frontend Masters level lectures every day and instead they get a recent alumni who became an instructor pulling up some slides and walking through them as written. In all fairness their instructors are fairly consistent and there is a hierarchy, like a pyramid, of instructors. Fellow -> Mentor -> Instructor -> Lead Instructor -> Head Instructor. And they have consistency in moving someone up the later. An instructor leaves? They pull the best mentor up.
