I would say that although your situation is probably not unique, not all people from coding boot camps are like that. There are people who believe that an 8 week course will teach them all they need to learn, but this is true of all education, and I have seen similar results from people with 4 year C.S. degrees as well. Do they need to learn more, absolutely, but there are a number of students who understand that this is just the start of their journey.
Like anything, there is no absolute, and I like to evaluate each one on a case by case basis. Just because someone can't spend the time and money to go back and get another degree doesn't mean that person won't turn out to be a great developer with a little bit of practice and help.
- partycoder 9y agoIf you are in an entry level software engineering job after having spent little time and resources, you have very little to lose by behaving in this way. It's either that or the alternative: working harder than everyone else, learning on your own time, try to push your career forward while completing low risk tasks.
