This is great news for any company who's able to see a few millimeters through the bullshit. Just hire people who are strong with computer science fundamentals, any maybe a few others who can play cross-functional roles. Treat them like a team and create proper mentorship/leadership dynamics. Work towards a common goal and empower the team. Watch them become one of the more functional teams in the tech industry.
The companies that hire fresh-out programmers from top schools have such an uphill battle. They have to handle people who have huge ego's from being sought after all bickering with each other on the team. They have to deal with the mistakes of people who think they know how to build something good for the company but are actually just wide-eyed and pig-headed. And then they have to deal with the fact that these people who are the "cream of the crop" will leave in a year or two to another companies' offer because even though this first company hired with a high salary no company in tech understands how to promote or give raises from within. It's always about the fresh and shiny new employee because almost all of tech is broken and once the reality of a team/person is seen it never meets expectations.
