Anyone in Chicago do a coding boot camp? What's it like and was it worth it?

I've heard mixed reviews of Fullstack and General Assembly. Do folks get hired into development jobs from these programs?

    My cousin did a boot camp at 187 a couple years back, he currently works in marketing.

    Said he loved the experience though

    I've heard poor things about Northwestern's boot camp from a person that completed it a year ago-- big classes, high student to teacher ratio, a curriculum that's skimmed over.

    You can get hired after a boot camp as a junior, but you need to have shown something outside of the boot camp curriculum. Github work or what have you.
