An associate is typically a fresh MBA grad or someone with a few years of tenure out of school.

Awkward imbalance of levels aside, I enjoy the consulting lifestyle personally. It’s interesting to work with many different clients and have enough political clout to get things done on a fast timeline.

Consultants get things done? Apart from a deck of slides?

They do. The client paid a load of money to hear what the consultant said, there’s a lot of incentive to act on it otherwise you’re the exec that hired a load of consultants only to ignore them.
