So I was looking for the text of the lawsuit, but the search turned up a person who closely matches the description of the plaintiff on LinkedIn (and not the lawsuit). I wish I could read the allegations because just going by her current and past employment, things look a little fishy.
I recently heard, I think on Planet Money, that a lot of places are moving away from ISAs because they have too much trouble collecting on them. People who hit it big afterward end up having remorse that they signed the ISA and try to get out from under. A suspicious part of me wonders whether that's going on here.
To be clear, I'm not saying that these boot camps are generally a good idea. I've been unfavorable about them on here for a while. But, if you do transition into a technical role after going to one, that would seem to be a success story, even if the role isn't a programmer role.
- alecbz 5y agoThe article mentions that they were in a technical role before the bootcamp as well.
- asdfasgasdgasdg 5y agoThat narrative is not obviously aligned with the employment history on LinkedIn. To be clear, that is also not my reading of the article. It says, "Bruner ended up going back to program management, a field she was working in prior to attending Lambda." But while her prior role might have had that label, it doesn't appear to have been particularly technical. It looks like it was more of an event planning and coordination role. Now she's in a technical program management role. Maybe I'm misreading something, but I would be interested in a fuller understanding of the circumstances that might be offered by a reading of the complaint, should anyone happen to find it.
- mrtranscendence 5y agoGoing by the LinkedIn profile, she was in program management, but it wasn’t a technical role; she was managing nurse practitioners.
