"Loved the job, but the management staff was un-experienced and difficult to work with. As the maintenance manager I found it impossible to complete any tasks given to me due to the methods used by the plant manager to prioritize the work load. He wanted to leave the decisions up to the complete management group, holding meetings regularly to discuss the maintenance priority list. This caused problems because every manager had their own priority. Nothing ever got completed! We would get 80% done, then get redirected."
