This is a common sentiment because so many people use ORMs, and because people are using them so often they take the upsides for granted and emphasise the negatives.
I've worked with devs who hated on ORMs for performance issues and opted for custom queries that in time became just as much a maintenance and performance burden as the ORM code they replaced. My suspicion is the issues, like with most tools, are a case of devs not taking the time to understand the limits and inner workings of what they're using.
