I totally get this. Sometimes I'm literally building the entire deck myself. It is good learning experience / practice but I do wish my higher-ups were pulling more of their weight.
Baseline is to delegate as much as the analyst can do while maintaining a reasonable timeline.
those that split it either were impatient, didn’t have confidence in their abilities to describe what was needed or were nervous about hitting whatever deadline
is the concern in your end that your overstaffed? Usually if they split more with you, it’d just mean you’d get an additional staffing to compensate
The problem is that a majority of my time is going to staffings with this one associate, which then makes me neglect my other staffings because I don't have enough time. Ultimately leads to rushed work with the other associates that I prefer working with.
Have experienced similar things with associates in my 6 months on the job. Some do a TON of work and just assume that they are splitting the workload with you, others want you to take a stab at it but will help out if needed, and some just don’t help at all.
Obviously the first two options are much better, and usually those experiences are much more positive because you’re in the trenches together + both super familiar with the materials when questions/issues arise.
The associates who don’t do anything are the worst. It sucks working all night and your associate is logging off at 10pm. Also, I’ve had some who don’t help AND they communicate with the seniors to make it seem like they are contributing. Also had one who would say “we” need to get something done, the implication being that “we” meant me. Annoys the shit out of me but makes me appreciate the good associates even more.
Anyways, it’s normal. It sucks. Work harder and be nicer to the associates who help you out so that you get staffed on their teams.
To everyone who doesn't, please make the staffer aware. Staffers generally have no clue about this and assume that the ASO is using 20-30% of his capacity for a certain staffing while you are using 30-40%.
Reality is that with these people they use 5% and you use 50% - which makes combining with other staffing much harder.
Make the staffer aware and tell him you don't like working with these associates.
