I've certainly known programmers like that.

When I was a junior programmer (long time ago) I once worked under a
senior programmer who had a habit of slapping in a couple of final bug
fixes at the end of "final testing" just before the software was due to
be shipped to the customer. On a couple of occasions this resulted in
the customers receiving software that was completely non-functional.
