"although the designer and I get along with him just fine"

It is very common that arrogant developers are condescending to non-tech people and not to tech people, considering themselves a special breed of human beings.

"I've drawn a pretty hard line in defending him thus far"

Why? Do you have evidence that the SDE is right? 4 different complains on a 9 employees company seems to indicate that's not the case.

The minimal 'evidence' collected so far, I feel like can be interpreted as miscommunication or a difference in style. I will try to gather more.

I agree though, 4/9 is concerning.

Thanks!
