GBThe Best of the Best!!! Clever Programmer is an amazing group of people that go out of their way to listen and help others become better developers. I went on the Javascript tour LA and if there is any other one I will 100% recommend!!. I am so happy with them that i decided to join the Bootcamp and react intensive course.

GBHe's made $5M selling dreams It's a glorified YouTube playlist locked behind a paywall and he made millions by convincing people that his courses are better than anyone else's by making people trust him from watching his YouTube videos. If you are a masochist and like to watch boring dragged-out videos that are less organized than they are on YouTube, go support his financial dreams. I did a review on an actual educational company on my profile, go check that it out if you want to learn.

GBPromises Made But Not Kept Clever Programmer is a Hype Machine that makes promises, but can't deliver on them. The program is unorganized, unprofessional, under-delivered, and unstructured. 1. Disorganized with curriculum (nothing cohesive or transparent) 2. Lack of homework guidance, providing original homework, and no feedback on homework. 3. Lack of accountability by coaches. 4. Lack of communication between all employees. 5. Lack of standard pricing and price ranges from $5K to $22K. Need clearer pricing for all students. 6. Unprofessional because they cancelled a week of class because of their marketing event. There were no preparations to continue class because they needed our instructor, Naz. 7. Lack of consideration for all students. I got out of my contract because of health reasons, but everything I stated above is true. I am thankful I got out of my contract and it only cost me $1100 and I was switched to PWJ. But there are 13 + of my classmates who are fighting for a refund and Qazi won't give them a refund and IT IS HIS choice to do so. He gave two of my classmates a refund that I know of, but no one else. Shady stuff seems to go on there with the lack of communication.

GBI am disappointment and the unfulfilled… I am disappointment and the unfulfilled structure of this bootcamp. I was given an overview of the materials and concepts of what would be taught and since then there has been no structure. We learn a few topics then jump back and forth between concepts. Since I have started there has no been no follow up on homework or any projects we have done. All of the homework they are giving us as students are FREE ! The teachers are a hit or miss. They either show up or not, and if the teachers are not able to attend class there is a fill in sub that teaches us nothing! There have been times where the teachers have forgotten they have to teach class and showed up 30 or more minutes late. We are constantly having new teachers. The lack of communication is beyond me. When having a question or wanting to talk to the teachers on the side they take a week or more to respond. I don’t feel like the money I am paying is worth it. I am highly dissatisfied. I’ve tried talking to the bootcamp to see if they are willing to meet me half-way but they have refused to help and refund me money. I was not the only student that felt this way so we spoke to the CP team regarding all of the issues and wrote a petition because again this was not what was promised and failed to deliver for the services I thought I would be paying for. Qazi won’t refund the 12+ students that are unhappy Yet they have live event tours and charge for this Bootcamp (15/21K) depending who you ask ?! It Varys I asked People are now having to pay for this with nothing in return because he doesn’t want to. there was no resolution on trying to get a refund. He simply will not do it because he doesn’t want to lose money

GBFullstack Mastery bootcamp student Fullstack Mastery bootcamp student here. I'm very happy with the results of my bootcamp experience taking me from someone dabbling with code to someone who has a firm grasp of major frontend and backend principles, project building experience, and team-oriented developer methodologies. Pros - fantastically engaging instructors - focus on deep learning of JavaScript basics and application of constant problem solving - guided self-learning projects - readily available community to push you forward as you build and develop skills - emphasis on continuous improvement as technologies change Cons - capstone project structure was disorganized - too little time spent on backend (node.js) as a fullstack program
