I'm in the middle of training at XJT right now. Every student for the last couple of classes, including mine, has been assigned ORD. I'm personally hoping to bid or trade to EWR by the time I'm done at the end of July because I have family that lives there and I can sit reserve there easily. I was actually quite surprised that I didn't get EWR since it's normally pretty junior, but a lot of XJT FO's have been hired by the majors and I guess ORD needs us more than anywhere else.
There are no delays in training, unless you stat failing events and have to do them over. I started 21May and I'll finish up at the end of July if all goes according to schedule and so far it has. I was originally waiting to go with Envoy but they still haven't called me back about a training start date (interviewed in February). XJT gave me the training date of my choice right after the interview, including the ATP class.

Ya know, I’m biased, but XJT has always been known for a great training program. I’m sure there’s not an airline out there with “bad” training, but XJT has always been known for a great training facility/instructors/program.

I think if you talk to former xjt pilots now at any major you’ll find xjt training is among the best in the whole airline industry. The same would go for IT, and a number of other areas of the company. It’s just too bad the same couldn’t be said for the top down culture.
