I don't think bootcamps are glorified, but rather looked down on.

I don't think I know anyone who has such a big ego as to say coding is easy. Sure, hello world is easy but that's not representative of coding overall.

I'm not seeing a flood of under qualified people joining the profession... domestically at least. The group with the highest rates of underperforming people I have encountered have been from contracting companies based in India. Even then, it's not super high in general but more how the company tended to switch from their A team players from initial on-boarding to their B team players for ongoing project work.

The value/pay decline hasn't really happened yet. I think it might really happen in the nenxt few years. We are seeing higher unemployment but we are still seeing high pay for the remaining positions. The companies are being picky about who they hire and still want the "best", or they just outsource.
