I dont enjoy it at all. Its enough to keep track of the adventure and various enemies without worrying about another character to run. As was stated in another post, it often turns into a DM mouthpiece where the PCs just expect to be able to follow the NPC or it is completely forgotton.
I don't even care to let the party have hirelings or cohorts that participate in battle because then they have to multitask with book keeping and planning. Also I find the personalities of both characters just drop out of the picture.
