No. I was aware during my CS undergrad that I wasn't learning how to be a software engineer. I was learning the theories of computation from professional computer scientists. There were plenty of warnings on HN and the rest of the Web that internships, side projects, and Leetcode grinding would be required to land a job. A CS degree does not guarantee a job.

And yet everything I learned in my CS degree could have been done on my own time without paying a massive amount of tuition. That doesn't make the degree worthless. Same can be said for bootcamps.
