Advice to Senior Management

Overall it is a great company and it seems to be going into the right direction however the only roadblock we encounter is having the mid-management in the way, always delegating extra unnecessary work or comments to us when we're already so busy with our own work. It seems that they are not there to help us at all except to slow us down on our pace by pushing us to push others in other departments when it is not even our role doing so. This should be their job. Often we are always the problem to them when situations arises on their end and they seem to show that they have power. Productivity would be much better by eliminating the mid-management positions or replacing them with experienced ones coming from other top tier companies.
