We’ve turned into a Hive, things are getting serious.

There's also a scenario where the team or manager will get rid of such a person if they get tired of cleaning up his messes. Especially if there are KPIs, a bonus and penalty system with a minimum wage salary.

It depends on how fluid the position is. If there are "a hundred more like him waiting outside the gate," then it's possible, although in this case, a minimum wage isn't an incentive; they'll just stay on the basic salary for life and be fine with it.
But, based on my own experience, I've observed in such situations that no matter how much a person works there, and no matter how badly they do it, management doesn't care, even if everything goes up in blue flames. It won't be such a big loss.
