One heiress can't do everything, Weiss might be a contingency, a backup in case something happens to Winter. After all, being a huntress is a dangerous job.

Winter made sure Weiss was able to get out, go to Beacon and learn just how badly Father Schnee screwed up, and she likely planted the seeds of silent rebellion that lead to Wise desiring to do so, taught her in secret that their grandfather was better. Thats a lot of theory for which we haven't seen any proof of yet. Papa Schnee probably isn't evil. Old and racist; probably. Abusive? It's been hinted at; but I'm guessing he still loves his daughters or else they wouldn't be allowed to make choices. Weiss chose to become a huntress at Beacon, Same way Winter probably chose to join the Atlesian military.
