I have seen this 'fungible bricklayer' approach at amazon & have to tell you it cant be any more misguided. It may work for generic web software where learning curve is not as steep but any point you are dealing with vertical technologies like wireless or multimedia it just falls flat on its face. And the byproduct is poorly thought out software full of band-aids. unfortunately this kind of nonsense often becomes pervasive where management itself is very non-technical (google may be an exception though).
