I walked past one such hire on the job afterward, and noticed that the code on her screen made a line from the upper left to the lower right corner. Closer inspection revealed that she had written 32 nested statements to iterate through the 32 characters in a part number (used by our clients for military equipment).
After leaving 5 years later, I went to PWC (then just Price Waterhouse). They did not have their shit together nearly as well as Andersen, let me tell you. So... that's kinda scary.
Not to mention that the assertion in the title of this post is wrong, at least in the USA. We have a federal law called the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act that makes it illegal to void the warranty of a product simply because the user modified it.
