depends on what you want to do imo web dev at an average to good company? no absolutely not worth it anything at a FAANG? +/- mandatory anything that involves complex algorithms?(efficient delivery/dispatching system at scale, complex social media, complex games, anything where efficiency/speed/low memory usage is extremely important) probably yes otherwise some basic algorithm solving is probably enough(I really enjoyed the algorithmic exercises on freecodecamp web path for example, I think it's just enough for about 80-90% of junior programming jobs)
