The worst programmer I know literally could not go a day without either checking in code that did not compile or saying something creepy and sexual in a large open plan office, and we all worked together to get them fired.

The first problem can be fixed by CI/CD, and proper branching strategies. Each IC should have their own branch, then PR into appropriate branch
Have no idea on the second, other than a visit from HR.

I was the ci/cd guy. I am not exaggerating when I say this person's code just would not compile and they would not test locally.

An intermediate state on their own branch maybe not such a big deal. But did they regularly initiate pull requests on on broken branch ?
