It's suffocating to be in a middle management position because you get squeezed by the higher-ups and your own team. If the higher-ups make a decision that your team dislikes or vice versa, you're going to be in the shitter with whichever party suffered every time even if you had the best intentions.

Yup, if you take a middle management job, you better have a plan to move up quickly, or desperately need the money.

Unfortunately for me it's the latter
