This isn't nearly true anymore, and hasn't been for a long time. Especially since everyone is using the same AI tooling as everyone else now.

What is true (in my experience) is that they do tend to lack a sense of ownership and craft. But I think companies care less and less about that all the time.

If you are a good software developer in India then you move abroad. It's not that India doesn't make great software developers, it's just they don't tend to stick around.
