Not worth it!

Pros

Good training program "you get paid to learn" that's literally the only good thing about the whole program. However, learning from YouTube is probably better.

Cons

Because "you get paid to learn", you become their product "leave your humanity at the door". You'll be constantly threatened by breaching "the contract". There's no limit of how long you'll stay in staging period after completing the training, you may be stuck there for 4 months or so. Their training materials are no better than those on YouTube tutorial or online blogs/tutorials.

Pros

They provide an excellent and most intensive training. At least you don't have to go to an expert training and spend big currencies for the same program. They have a huge network of good clients they work with all over the country to provide immediate opportunity to work on projects.

Cons

Initial salary is less compared to industry, but it’s ok to start your career.
