Thanks for the detailed response, after this comment it seems unlikely that I will go with Codesmith at all. Appreciate you commenting, may have saved me ALOT of money!

You should look into extensive detail on your own as these are my opinions, but you also shouldn't just trust their market and their branding etc... The ask people to write Course Report reviews, etc.. (which most bootcamps do too) but you have to try to dig deeper for how the sausage is made.
There are still a handful of people for whom Codesmith could work, and you might be one of them, but you have to go into it knowing all the baggage and problems and choose it for the right reasons.
My overall argument is that the fact that they don't admit the baggage (I've heard 'that was just a misake' so much that it's not just a mistake) and are gaslighting people and spinning the narrative TO ME is a huge red flag and I would never tell anyone to go there anymore, but that's my opinion.
