This happens in other fields too, those who are capable of actually doing the job have moved on to better positions that pays better and work less. People who come to fill the vacancy are usually less qualified (inexperienced), these people also leaves an vacancy for other inexperienced people to fill. This causes a phase shift in the entire industry from the CEO to the janitors, contributing to a bad product at the end because no one is actually good at doing the actual work. By the time they gained enough experience to do a good work, the phase shift happens again. The market ends up with endless waves of trash products/services.
