Sounds like a hiring problem. Start hiring some new devs and keep them separate so as to not contaminate them. As they come up to speed, let one of the other devs go. Wash, rinse and repeat.
Note: I'm a dev and I can tell you I very much dislike working with prima donnas.
- commandlinefan 7y ago> Sounds like a hiring problem. Yes, but not the way I think he’s thinking (and maybe not the way you’re thinking either). If you were actually in a room with him and said, “ok, let’s just walk in there right now, fire these clowns and replace them with somebody better” he’d immediately hold up his hand and say, “but I can’t find anybody better…”. So yes, it’s probably a hiring problem but the problem is that he’s putting unreasonable expectations on the people he’s hiring.

- throwaway55554 7y agoRight!?
