From my experience, a hireling has never been able to outclass a PC who puts work into the skill. They're more supplementary or gap-filling than anything. I incorporate my hirelings into my characters' stories, such as my Demolition Android whose hireling is a lawyer (Cha Skills) because he goes a little haywire with his occupation sometimes and needs legal representation. If there's someone at the table who is a spec in my hirelings' skills, I take a backseat and let their characters flourish, while sometimes providing backup or a possible safety net in case they fail.
