Maybe people aren’t expecting riches, but I will say that all of my peers (late 20’s) looking for a career change are looking at coding boot camps as a way of achieving stability. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but there’s no free lunch in the long term.
- jedberg 7y agoStability and retirement are two very different things. :)
- pgwhalen 7y agoAin't that the truth! I guess where I'm trying to draw the parallel is that it's becoming somewhat of a "default" where people aren't critically thinking about whether it's right for them, they just see dollar signs. Maybe that is what strikes me as a little bubble-ish. (I'm young though and have not been through a downturn in my career, so what do I know)
