I blame the terrible education system and software hiring practices. Graduating students don't know how to build software in a team, businesses do not properly onboard, and hiring practices are like an exam that has nothing to do with the work being done. Companies are becoming more averse to hiring those that actually learned software and didn't just fluff their resume with degrees and bootcamps because less engineers are doing the hiring.
Those that didn't have to work for it sit back and enjoy the paycheck while getting by with the minimum amount of work. To everyone involved work can just be a free payday, if the product fails they'll move elsewhere. Or if the product is too big to fail it's guaranteed anyways. Actual engineers are a rarity, and these companies don't like them because they point out how management has been milking the project.
