I think the lack of training is probably worldwide. I'm in the UK and have seen it in most companies here (although can only provide anecdotal evidence).

Training is expensive and increased productivity is hard to measure - coupled together you see training as a cost with no tangible benefit.

They then just expect their employees to learn everything in their own time (which from your employers perspective, is free). There's a kind of horrifying logic to it really.
