This not an uncommon belief. Bootcamps are designed so that people can become employable without having to go to college. Anyone who went to college will understandably dislike that premise.
Most bootcamps are 10-14 weeks, not 6. Most bootcamps are taught by or founded by people from successful tech companies. Most bootcamps work with real companies to design curriculum that teach the equivalent of what the company would have to teach their new hires anyway.
It's healthy to be sceptical, but the reality is that the hiring statisics that most bootcamps put out are Real. Most people get hired. Most people get competitive salaries.
Bootcamps only exist because thousands of bootcamp graduates have been getting jobs at real companies for the past 5 years. There are some that are bad (poor curriculum, poor teaching, poor outcomes), but that's why you can check their statistics and reviews, and make the decision for yourself whether they seem reputable or not.
