did they expect to get their name in credits for doing their job?

Yes, that is the purpose of the credits. To credit people who did their job on the project.

But that's not how it works for most outsourced vendors. When you look at movie or game credits and you see a sector headed by a company name, it's because that company was hired to do a certain task. And in that case you mostly only see the leads names listed, not the actual workers.
