My admission experience w/Codesmith

I'm not trying to take away from your experience, but you should ask yourself - in all of the positively and clapping and emojis and great vibes with your cohort-mates and staff.... the amount of anonymous vitriol I get on here from those same people is something to think about. It looks like a cult documentary where everyone on the inside is devoted and talk about life changing experiences, and people on the outside get attacked. If you love Codesmith so much you will be super mean and personally insult or mock someone online, think about it a bit. My arguments over the years have been professional and legitimate criticism of Codesmith's: 1. claim of creating mid level engineers with zero work experience 2. OSP projects that are not good quality engineering work but portrayed that way 3. the trend of the vast majority of grads exaggerating on their resumes These aren't personal attacks on individuals and mocking them, calling them losers with no life, calling me a fat bald dude, and all kinds of other shit I get regularly from some people claiming to be Codesmith grads. I don't think this approach is working well for Codesmith's overall brand and appearance. The only response about 1, 2, 3 I've gotten from Codesmith is defensive that they disagree and do think they grads are mid level, that the OSPs are amazing engineering work, and that grads don't lie on their resumes. I think the reality is strongly in my favor on those 3 points and the harder they push the harder I push back. Resorting to sarcastic comments and name calling is usually the last resort when you have nothing legitimate to say.
