Except now there's a glut of aspiring junior engineers in the market. A friend of mine who graduated 1-2 years ago from a bootcamp told me his cohort's job placement rate after 3 months was 90% whereas this year it's less than 50% at the same school.
IMO there's a glut of subpar junior engineers that don't understand CS principles. Have been doing this a while; everyone who understands data structures and algorithms gets snapped up pretty quickly.
