Management Consultants: A bunch of 20 sth year olds with fancy degrees and zero experience in growing a business helping huge companies grow by whatever means possible. I always found this hugely ironic.

It's an interesting business. I've known some management consultants who were serious pros and it's a seriously impressive skill. I've also seen the army of kids who descend on an office and produce nonsense reports to provide the execs with CYA for whatever predetermined decision.

And yet these consultants created a plan so successful NYT is writing about it.

20-year-olds are also quite good at selling addictive drugs.

I wouldn't say management consultancy is unsuccessful by any means. The ethicality of what some of these firms have done? Hmm...
