      Pros

      You have a CHANCE for a job.

      Cons

      Owe 30k if you are fired for cause or if you leave. You are not guaranteed the job even if you complete the program. You are stuck making minimum wage if they can't place you.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Hands-On Training: Smoothstack provides immersive, in-depth training that really prepares you for real-world projects. Supportive Environment: The team fosters collaboration and mentorship, making it easier to learn and grow. Career Growth Opportunities: After the initial training phase, the company helps place you on engaging projects, giving you a chance to rapidly build your portfolio. Strong Community: There is a sense of camaraderie and teamwork that helps keep you motivated and eager to learn.

      Cons

      Fast-Paced Learning Curve: The training can be intense, so it might feel overwhelming at first if you’re not used to a rigorous schedule. Location Flexibility: Depending on client locations, you may need to be open to relocating or traveling. This can be a challenge for those seeking more predictable schedules.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - The mission of helping unemployed or underemployed find high paying technology jobs - Great working environment in terms of people I work with from top to bottom both in and outside of my department - Open to trying new things and hearing new ideas - Ability to make decisions quickly and move fast to take advantage of opportunities

      Cons

      - Cost of medical insurance seems to be rising, but I think that is going to be happening at just about every company.
