Flat Iron is a very respectable bootcamp. Especially for someone in your position who has years of experience in finance.
If you are looking for a paid program to build Machine Learning(AI) systems, I would recommend checking out @svpino on twitter. His website is also ml[dot]school.
I don't have personal experience with either of these options, but I see both talked about a fair amount on twitter.
The downside I usually see mentioned when it comes to bootcamps is that it's just not possible to become industry ready in 3 or 6 months, and that they work better for people who already are in a technical or finance focused industry.
Hopefully someone comments who is a data scientist or machine learning engineer who can give you their personal experience, which is probably better than my experience which entirely consists of just hearing good things about these programs.
Hopefully that helps a bit :). GL on your new journey.[/QUOTE
Thanks for the feedback! My one friend IRL did flatiron for webdev and he is killing it right now. I think my finance background will help me alot and it definitely seems promising. Hoping to hear more from people who have made the change, but glad to see you heard positive feedback online.
