pip-squeaks
Insignificant small fry
Pip-squeaks is the plural of pip-squeak—a small, insignificant, or contemptible person, especially one who is young or inexperienced and acts above their station: Those pip-squeaks in the mailroom think they can tell us how to run things.
The term is dismissive but relatively mild, suggesting the target lacks the size or authority to be taken seriously.
