after spending like two hours fixing all the syntax errors

If the code has syntax errors then clearly the tests don't pass. A minimum requirement to start reviewing a PR should be that the tests all pass.

Hahaha! They don't write tests. They are unfamiliar with the concept of unit testing.

I had to explain to them the concept of "you import your function and call it with different arguments to make sure it returns what you expect". It took a couple tries.

Meanwhile, the head of the "quality" team keeps telling me that I should stay in my lane and not tell the developers how to do their work.
