I think it is an industry moving away from boot camp grads. Almost all these boot camps focused on JavaScript and HTML/CSS.

None of them were really teaching Linux sysadmin, clustering, scaling, etc. The real world needs developers that understand more than just frontend development.

“Learn Java and backend engineering in 6 weeks” isn’t going to cut it either.

There are no shortcuts to experience and aptitude.
