I am sure that was very frustrating! Did you end up letting him go? It sounds loke the job wasn't a fit for his skillsets.
I will say that I have hired junior folks and seen them thrive after three months (take on more work with more autonomy) and that leveling up was so great to see. Plus it made them a better developer and more effective foe the company.
That's the flip side.
And it's not like a senior developer is a sure bet to be effective either (though I grant you they are, all things considered, a better bet).
