> Examples include: - having to chase down specific individuals and sit down with them to walk them through my code review - waiting for approvals on code reviews while other engineers, not wanting to be blocked on my work, copy and paste my code directly into their branches and open new code reviews which have no problem getting approvals

That's crazy! I'd be escalating that shit to my manager in the first day it happened. Management should sort out any individuals that have a problem. I can't understand why a company would hire an engineer _not_ to do work.

I'm glad you raised this. You should definitely be vocal regarding this to your manager and if he/she doesn't listen then raise to manager's manager.

This is unacceptable and definitely shouldn't be the norm.
