Worried about your job, angersock?
- bdcravens 10y agoI don't think any professional developer is worried about losing their job to a bootcamper who hasn't had at least two years of OJT.
- flukus 10y agoI am actually. I've seen many jobs go to cheaper on-shored labour with no regard for quality or technical ability. I've seen many millions of dollars pissed away and removed from the investment pool. That money could have been spent on competent people and the investors may have even come out with something to show for it.
- angersock 10y agoQuite the opposite. Consider the folks who are signing up for this--people who by definition either don't have the background required to do this industry work or who are returning to retrain. In either case, they are probably not going to be making top wages starting out, and with the federal aid assistance the prices for bootcamps across the board will go up. So, they'll have a larger amount of debt to pay back if they get a job--at the exact same time the competition for the types of jobs they are trained for increases dramatically. It's a setup, and I hope a bunch of people don't get burned.
