Can you add more details about your background and your goals? There are no objectively good choices. If you have more experience Codesmith is probably better for getting a higher paying job than Flatiron. In terms of education, all material you ever need is available free online (or for much cheaper than a bootcamp) so I would weigh that less. Codesmith relies heavily on former students to teach, but have scaled this better than other bootcamps that rely on former students to teach by making the "Fellows" program a prestigious fixed term role for the best students, rather than a backup role for the ones that didn't get jobs where the teacher might leave suddenly when they get hired. If you have decent experience, or your goal is a top tier/FAANG level company, you might just need a more interview-focused coaching and feedback (not a school or bootcamp).
