Meaning

Someone who disrespects social hierarchy by being too familiar with people above them. In Mexico, calling someone igualado means they treat their boss like a buddy or act as if social rank doesn't apply to them. It carries a clear sense of disrespect toward whoever holds the higher position.

Examples

Don't be so familiar, he's your boss, not your buddy.

They let him go for being disrespectful to the clients.
