I feel like that was always the case, at least since like 10 years ago and by my definition.

I've always felt my real education in software engineering started at work.
20 odd years later I lead a large engineering team and see the same with a lot of graduates we hire. There's a few exceptions but most are as clueless as I was at that age.
That doesn't mean my education was worthless—quite the opposite. It's just that what you learn in a software engineering degree isn't "how to write code and do software development in a professional team in their specific programming language and libraries and frameworks and using their specific tooling and their office politics."
