You’re talking about people who work at a high level and might not type that much code. Thats definitely a thing.

I’ve also got a junior front line engineer on my team who does literally nothing. It takes them 10x too long to do anything and they require so much help from seniors than it would be faster for them to do it themselves. One of the seniors told me “a sure fire way to make sure something doesn’t get done is to give it to them.”

But gosh, it isn’t 10% of them that are like this. No way. This person is 1 in 500.
