As my old rowing coach used to say, "Help me, help you!".
1. You're looking for a school that "pays for your CFI if you work for them". Does this mean you want to work for them at the front desk or something and then begin training for your CFI? Does this mean you want the school to pay for your CFI with the expectation that you work for them once you complete the CFI?

2. How many weeks is a few weeks? I've seen programs ranging from two weeks to four weeks and beyond.

3. What dollar amount would you describe as being cheap for a CFI program, $4000, $6000, $8000? How much quality are you willing to sacrifice for price?

Also, I'm curious as to why you posted this question in the CPS section of the forum. It is more likely to be viewed if posted in the General Topics section. This will yield more views and therefore more responses.

PM me if you have more specific questions and I'll be happy to share what I've learned with you.

This thread would definitely be better in the General Forum. However, I can tell you that presently and in the future, CPS will not pay for a student's CFI in exchange for some type of work agreement.

As for our course length, it is roughly 21-30 days, dependent wholly on the student, and the cost is listed on our website. We are neither the cheapest nor the most expensive.

One of my favorite signs at a pizza shop I used to go to reads:

This shop offers 3 kinds of jobs: Good, Cheap, and Fast. You can have any two.

I think this speaks volumes here. While not always, in life, one generally gets what one pays for. Also, I'll concur that this thread would be much better posted in the "General" section.
