As a recent HR.com article states

'It is tough to be a middle manager. On the one hand, you are pulled by senior management that demands seamless and sometimes unquestioning execution of organizational strategy. On the other hand, you contend with frontline supervisors and employees who, in addition to typically wanting higher pay and better benefits, are opinionated about how work is performed and often resist the unfamiliar.'
