I have a theory that in most large companies the 80/20 rule applies. 20% of the engineers do 80% of the work.

Sure, because the other 80% of engineers have to clean up after the 20%.
That doesn't mean the other 80% are useless. They generally work on less important things that are still bringing in more revenue than they cost in salaries.
It also feels like those same 80% of the engineers doing nothing are taking home 80% of the compensation
Because those other 80% are focused on posturing and tasks associated with getting higher pay.
