Boot camp devs who have never coded before attending boot camp are more likely to work for a significantly lower level of compensation than those who have experience.

As someone who runs a software business I can't even begin to imagine to hire someone who has only 3 months programming experience. Even if it was a super low paid position - it still would be wasted money.

I guess companies in the valley are becoming really desperate - or they build trivial products where someone with almost no programming experience can productively fill a role.
