Dark Dilbert Syndrome
Yes, we are seeing a growing lack of understanding and devaluation of the talent needed for IT work as well as techincal work in all areas. Thinking that just anyone can do a job is folly. You pay for that mistake one way or the other, mainly due to lost business from unsatisfied customers who will take their custom elsewhere. It is called "Being penny wish and pound foolish". Unfortunately, the results of these mistakes don't come home to roost until after the damage is done, the process is entrenched, senior management has staked their reputations on it, and a bonus has been paid out.
And let us not even begin to discuss the security rammifications of outsourcing critical code to countries that think nothing of nationalizing businesses at a drop of a hat, having no qualms about raiding the POPI bank of a company in it's borders, or the use of spies to further it's own ends.
