I don't think it's a problem if more IT professionals here do software development. Main problem is that many don't like to write software and do things with low value add and are easily replaceable to lower cost region.

Lack of quality software engineers are also causing development jobs to leave. It's all about getting talent for those jobs.

End up companies moving out since they can't get talented developers and low cost jobs can be moved elsewhere.

I said they don't like to do that and prefer low value add jobs.
