Pros

(This is my perspective as someone with a degree in CS) Revature hires anyone with ANY degree, doesn't have to be a CS degree, as long as you pass the computer science test that is part of their interview process. They even give you a study guide to review before taking the test so there really isn't a reason you shouldn't pass the test if you study it. The training is bootcamp-style, very fast, especially if you're someone new to programming and computer science. But for people in a similar situation to me, it felt like going back to college or university, except I was learning technologies that were actually being used in industry and I was getting paid to do it. They teach you soft skills, not just technologies.

Cons

You're locked into a contract. Make sure to read the contract as the consequences for trying to get out mid-training can be quite hefty. The company is based on the East coast so the hours are based on that time zone. If you're on the West coast, you'll have to wake up very early every M-F. If you don't have a background in CS, you will probably have to put in a lot of time after work hours and you won't be paid for those hours.
