Think the problem is world wide now as pilots get "dropped" straight into jets.
No longer do they have to go through 5000 hrs or so of turboprop raw flying doing visuals & many many of those hours hand flying. No sim yet invented can compensate for that experience.
Nothing wrong with being 'dropped straight into a jet' if the selection process is good, the training is excellent and the airline culture pilot & positive orientated. I did as you did via GA and biz-jets, but a visual in a twin prop is no where the same as a medium jet. Slippery by comparison would be too kind and over simplified. Speedy and inertia are also parameters.
If a sharp cadet is dropped into a jet with in-depth training and is then encouraged by demonstration, to make manual approaches, even IMC, then the handling skills relevant to that a/c will be developed. Being dropped in, basic training to past the test, and then forbidden to 'have a go' on line is the recipe for weak skills.
