I think Griffiths EM/QM texts are fine if your not studying physics. However if you are they just skim the surface of material and this is were I think a lot of the bashing comes in. Physics curriculum (presumably like all) are a constant stepping stone and when your senior level professors expect you to know Clebsch Gordon coefficients in detail and Griffiths QM didn't then some questioning about his texts start to rise. In my opinion I thought Sakurai's QM was excellent in delivering a solid foundation in quantum mechanics
