Quite the opposite. Did the bare minimum to not be fired. Never took initiative. And stayed silent in all meetings unless forced to speak.
Definitely not a 10x, just a scam artist.

Did you only fire him because you found out he worked other jobs or because he didn't do enough work?
It’s not so much about whether he was a good coder. More that I can’t trust someone with production database access if I discover 6 months in that he has 2 other full time jobs.
(He was also not doing an amazing job - he required constant supervision without which he wouldn’t produce any meaningful output, presumably because he had 2 other managers he was trying to please at the same time)
