This looks like another paid/controlled review. FYI, Le Wagon tracks all the students' public reviews and contacts them personally if they don't like them or are approved, so hands down you can't trust anything you read about them. The reason most people don't land a dev job after the Wagon is that they are meant to be cheap labor: accepting a 15$ hourly rate after 6 months of hard non paid work and quitting a corporate job is not an option for anyone over 21 years old. Again, Le Wagon promises a dream job and a dream life, but only delivers an in-person course you could follow at Udemy with some self-discipline. Sort of an Instagram life. Worse waste of money I have ever done. But hey, they give away free beers every week.

No, nope, never heard about that, no, yes-but no, yep they are hard on insta stuff, you're the only judge—I'm 3 years into my job, now a senior front-end though.

Read my review carefully and you'll see that everything you mention is there (hype, half of people not being dev etc.).
