I have a masters from one of the schools listed. It didn’t do shit to help me get a job. I also have had to move almost every 2+ years with the brand name companies I worked for. I little research and they would see the issue the companies have why they laid off many.

I don't mean to dismiss anyone's personal story or journey or invalidate it - everyone has their own path.
When you zoom out and look at the data, the companies see trends, and they go with those trends, it's rational.
If bootcamp grads were crushing it at companies, they have the internal data processes and metrics to know, and they would go all in hiring bootcamp grads.
That simply isn't happening and they are sticking to their story.
Funny enough, your anecdote isn't that uncommon, and a lot of people get to these top jobs and then see all the problems with the companies and then want to move on to new jobs.
The SWE career can be a wild ride for many!
