Unbearably incompetent new associate.
I work in a boutique firm. We have a collegue who joined at an associate level 10 months ago, who:
- Never worked in our industry focus and hence doesn't know specifics
- Passes all asks and requests to analysts
- Generally doesn't understand what's going on and doesn't produce any actual work - instead he tries to be silent and unnoticed day-to-day
- Arrives at 10am and leaves a minute after the MD does, usually 4pm (then pretends he is online on teams until 9pm and schedule sends a random email to a client at midnight)
- Was hired as an associate although his skills are intern at best just because of his age and the fact he graduated MBA
- He is just unpleasant being around with, burps and eats loudly at the desk
- Takes all the calls from phone booths so the others do not hear him
- Everyone at the company knows he is an idiot except the MDs somehow. I struggle to understand how is it possible to go 10 months unnoticed
- He has been staffed on a single deal for 10 months now and stays silent when new mandate comes up so he doesn't get overworked. Average for team members is like 4-5 in the same time by then
I am just so annoyed just by his presence and the fact the guy makes 2x more than me although works 15% of me and others at best.
Anyone with the same experiences? What should I do?

So you complain when he's at the desk and complain when he leaves the desk. Make up your mind bud. You sound like his #1 fan.
