Desperation mode on

There are three tones from bootcamps I've heard: 1. The market is tough, we're pausing indefinitely/shutting down to protect our brand while we can and end on a positive note 2. The market is tough, we know it and it's not easy for us, we have a small team and small cohorts of 20 people at a time, and it's going to be tough, but if we accept you we'll try our hardest to help you get a job in about 6 months of graduating, just be ready for the worst. 3. The market is rebounding (it's ALWAYS rebounding to them), or, the market is going through cycles! Our grads are getting incredible jobs before graduating, senior engineer here, leading engineer here. We teach you in topic/style/method that's different from other bootcamps so we don't have the same issues. You might see the CEO on social media promoting the bootcamp more than you do in the program day to day. -------------- I understand 1, but it's the hardest for a bootcamp to do, when the team has poured their hearts and souls into something that was making $10M a year two years ago and now is laying everyone off. I respect 2, if the people are transparent enough, then these are the bootcamps that are really summoning everything in them to make it work. 3 you have to run, run fast and hard, no matter what they say.
