A good criticism indeed. But look at the growth of the IT sector since y2k. Companies need managers, and it was easy to become a a manger when the field was new. It is like startup, where early joins end up in high positions if they play their cards right. So a a manger in 2003 will become a vp today, unlike the manager of 2015.
