Hah, like fuck they are. The worst code I regularly have to review is written by EE grads. They have less of an understanding of pointers than the people in the office with a CS background.
I have probably like 2000 interviews under my belt across multiple companies. Your experience is an outlier. EE/ECE grads generally can write better optimized software - the only downside is that they aren't thinking as much of maintainability in design of interfaces, but thats a problem that is solved with LLMS
