Well since my actual job is designing resilient networks, I can say with certainty I know of some diversity employees that I wouldn't trust their networks to stay up given certain failure conditions--conditions that if engineered correctly they should be able to. They are put in jobs they are not qualified to do. You can't/shouldn't be turned loose with this type job without experience. Not because I give a shit about whatever title I have versus them, but because I've been through dozens of failures over the years and know what to look for.
Corporations have the same mindset, they try saving money by hiring the guy from India who barely knows how to code, and their systems soon become held together by shit code that barely functions and completely collapses from a gentle breeze. Then the corporations double down and hire more unskilled coders from India because upper management and retarded management consultants think that more people automatically means better products.
Yeah I'm so glad I'm not on the IT side of things. I'd die having to deal with that incompetence. So much of the crap they come up with from their mostly offshore staff is horrible.
The local staff I've seen here are awful as well, particularly when you're looking at small and medium sized businesses. They can barely use or set up a computer or complete basic tasks, and constantly just upsell services to boomers.
I did some of that work when I was in college, actually tried to apply at Best Buy once after losing one job due to a drug addict boss (I mean literal drug addict, meaning he got caught). You'd think they would want someone who had just spent the last three years doing on-site IT for small businesses and a few larger ones. Funny enough, apparently I didn't have the qualifications they were looking for. I guess because I actually fixed things.
It worked out though, a bunch of my repeat businesses ended up calling me and hiring me directly as a self-contractor after aforementioned drug addict left them hanging. Cut out the middle man and made it into a good raise for me.
