If my goal was get big and strong and I didn't have any injuries or recovery issues I would lean towards the DC training ppl 4 day split. As a intermediate lifter. If your a beginner I would lean towards a basic 3x per week full body workout
 
As a beginner I had fantastic results with starting strength. You can gain strength and size on any of those if you eat properly and make an effort to progress on your lifts weekly.

I think too much emphasis is placed on this program or that program. Find something that includes heavy compound lifts, eat like a pig 3-6 times per day and you’ll see results.
 
For sure! linear progression is tits for a beginner. It can be brutal and if I’m being honest quite stressful at times, but certainly one if the more productive methods for beginners.
I have always felt for a person in there first year of lifting consistently that high frequency and adding 5lbs to the bar is the way to go. You get good at a few main lifts and improve your strength at them. If you add 50+ lbs to your bench and rows and 75+ to your squats and deadlifts your going to get much bigger
 
My first routine was my best progress to date,
Bench
Squat
Pulldowns
Power clean or deadlift
Incline bench or shoulder press.
If there was extra time you did something for arms.

The gameplan was simple, every week you add weight to the bars and eat more food

Agreed, same here. It’s such a simple concept, but it gets lost in all the flashy stuff. I just finished up the first week of unity by Dave Tate and John meadows. Liking it so far, I like meadows approach to heavy lifting - always priming the joints and muscles before heavy loads are applied with isolation work and feeder sets.

For instance yesterday was Max effort squats and the session started with 2 warmup sets of leg curls and 3 work sets, right before squatting. Squats felt fantastic because my knees were lubed up from the iso work without being overly fatigued.
