I find it to be more useful if you're on the offensive team.
For example, Container City.
At the start of the match, when your team is trying to blow the wall.... Open up the side passage, then go back to the main gate and find a body to decoy with.
People generally don't notice or have problems with "their" people coming in from that side passage, though there's no logical reason a defender would be coming from that passage anyways.
You suddenly have instant access to all of their command posts.
Any time there's a deliver objective, passing off as a "defender" is WAY too easy. I've walked in front of three enemies while decoyed, gotten behind the objective, and then when I see an opening (usually when they are all occupied with shooting), grab the objective from under their nose and make a dash for it.
Operatives are a bit over-powered in my opinion, but only if you take the time to anolyze grunt psychology.
And only if you're playing non-COD mode.
