No, and it's not even meant as judgemental. It's just a descriptor of jobs where new replacements can be trained in a short amount of time. I've worked jobs that can be adequately described as unskilled before, there's no shame in it.

No amount of parsing the minutiae of syntax and definitions matters, really. The labor is needed, and people should be paid a living and dignified wage for said labor.
It's using "unskilled" as the adjective that's manipulative.
Even if replacements are easily trained, they deserve dignity.
Obviously people who work those jobs for longer tend to be better... But a newbie can do a decent job after a few days to a couple of weeks, which isn't the case for a lot of jobs
