She's taken every small low risk project and turned them into $500k-$1000k fiascos when the project estimate was for less than 1 month for 3 people including her. Her 1 month projects are always finished about 9 months later and clients usually refuse to take delivery or would have to be coerced into taking delivery yet she still works there after screwing up 3 projects pretty badly since i've been working with her.

Sadly enough I also have witnessed this with males. Sometimes you wonder wtf is wrong with the managers for keeping them. The answer is mostly because he is such a social good guy.

Also the victim playing, I have seen many males play the victim card why again their projects refuse to work. They always blame it on something else, like the wrong Windows service pack installed, the wrong version of the OS, the wrong firmware on that notebook, the wrong version of Flash installed. Must be 13.0.1.6532 and you installed 13.0.1.6522..... And fro some strange reason managers keep these idiots destroying every project they get in their hands for years.

I agree. Incompetent men can screw up projects just like incompetent women. The only difference is, its not taboo for developers to speak to managers about the incompetent male whereas it is considered taboo to speak against incompetent women. In my case, I made mention of the problems that was causing the problems with her project and I was pulled into a meeting with the director. Mind you, I take on more riskier projects and for the most part have a great on time on budget delivery record, therefore I was just spoken to vs let go like in other cases.

In that department, I saw incompetent men have less than 4 week lifecycle where they were given extra chances but at the end of about 4 weeks if they haven't improved, they were let go. She's been there for over 2+ years and promoted because her code sucked.

But the one female had 2 PC stereotypes going for her. She was female and she was also muslim.

I could not have worded it better myself.
