Because at the end we want our lives to be easier so we load up on the better performing people so we have an easier time reviewing.

Partners: greed. Everyone else: self-preservation
Because the cycle of overworked continues ma at higher levels also. So they tend to go to who they know will get it done and done correctly to make it less time for them to complete their review and less time explaining.
This is the main reason why the PA industry is short staffed. Partners and higher ups that burn out high performers causing them to leave are ruining the PA industry. Instead they should be holding low performers accountable and not punishing high performers with an overload of work. It’s not the high performers problem that the low performers can’t perform!

Bc there is always someone else lined up to replace them
As a SM/manager/senior, would you want to work with someone who does great work or so so work? Most people I know use the same people over and over, even if they are swamped and the so so people have tons of availability. Then these people get overworked. I feel like ever since the large salary increases the last couple of years they’re working us more than ever to get a better return on their investment.
Those low or soso or mediocre performers could be great but seniors and above refuse to take the time to invest in them. Cycle they can't break and refuse to break themselves.
It takes putting the individual’s needs before your own. Good work begets more work. I have staff who are phenomenal, and it’s a daily effort to ensure they aren’t overloaded because everyone wants to work with the superstars. They manage up and get stuff done so naturally people gravitate because it’s easier on them.
Are they burning you out or do you just not know how to say no and set boundaries? 👀
Because good accountants don’t necessarily mean good leaders.

The better question is why are those willing to work hard, tolerate the workload. You get what you tolerate.
This is a great question.
Because they can
So we don’t burn out lol but yeah it’s not fair how the best always the overworked and get paid the same
Maybe you’re working hard for yourself? Because you want to be successful? Have options? Have a career?
