There's about three separate threads in that question. One's been touched on here by SM1.
In a scenario where a herd of low-value women has formed, the higher end of the herd will run roughshod over the lower half (or even more). This results in mediocre women looking better in comparison, because they ran their social subordinates through the grinder.
In a scenario where a large group of upper-mid-value women has formed, they will "reinforce" each other. I've seen this happen as literal "YOU GO GIRL" callouts in staff meetings. Fawning over each other, etc., etc. They're making sure that all boats are going to rise equally through... I dunno, fucking girl power or some such shit. This typically ends badly, because someone girlbosses too close to the Sun.
A high-value but weak woman forms a clique of lower-value but stronger women. Typically happens within a power structure, not across it. In the case I was in, weak department head gathered all of the vicious, useless women under her wings. Typically has more staying power than 2, and more positive outcomes than 1. Problem is that eventually the Alpha Bitch comes under scrutiny, and all the lower-value women scatter. Look at the big tech scandals involving women CEOs.
