I don't believe the junior devs on my team even run the code they are generating, let alone read it. Feeling like I'm doing 5x the work reviewing and testing that the person submitting has.

And I bet the impact of your review work on their development into medior/senior goes towards 0.
I recognize this discrepancy where review effort becomes more than the coding itself. I don't think I could sustain that for long.
I have been looking at some way to reduce the burden on me and put it back on the developer submitting. So far I’ve been asking them to split their wall of code PRs down in to multiple smaller ones, and soon I’ll probably ask them to demo to me the feature working because I can’t assume they did this themselves.
