US here, and skills are considerably more valuable than a degree. If you can do the work, it shouldn't matter where or how you learned it. While I have a degree, it's not in anything related to computer science. My degree was in fine art! But I taught myself how to code through online resources and was able to change careers. I am grateful that things have shifted this way, too. I would have never been able to afford getting another degree, nor been able to take weeks off work for a bootcamp. For that reason, I think valuing skills over a degree is a great thing. It allows a lot more opportunities to people who want to change careers and/or can't afford to go a full college tuition in the first place.
