Lead on my team doesn’t do any work

Need peoples opinion on this. Some background I joined this team about a year ago as an analyst. I noticed some things off for example this persons yapping in meetings saying they’re gonna finish a project on a certain date but then deliver it late consistently. Also noticed some brown nosing.

This person was offline on slack too quite often. Fast forward the manager offloaded their high visibility projects to me.

Now here’s where I have resentment. This persons work is not visible and I don’t believe he does any work at all. What baffles me is the manager allows it. Other people on our team pull their weight but not this person.This has been going on for a year. How could this be? Why would a manager allow this to happen it’s quite obvious he barely does any work.

Any thoughts?

He/she may have compromising photos or information about the manager. It happens.

@e7 honestly could be this. I noticed early on he had telephoned something over to my manager that I only told him. Wasn’t anything crazy but was a bit odd.

@bp that would give me away. But it’s a tech org.

The lead in our team does the same. We all know she is a spy for management. This is why she does whatever she pleases without repercussions.

@a4 I agree but I’m saying he is not helping his team mates. He is deadweight and is causing a higher workload on others.

Let the manager worry about him/her and keep your eyes on your own paper.

Who cares about productivity in service of this cesspool?
