They helped me land a great job fast

Pros

Was able to speed through their FastTrack program & they landed everyone in my class a job before the program was even over. Very much enjoy the position they got me & got a promotion after a year. It's been a true springboard for my career and a catalyst towards my advancement in the field.

Cons

First two years they take a chunk of your pay. Be ready to work hard, especially after your complete the program. I'd argue it's all worth it if you know this is something you want.
