It's a no-win situation for the managers. If only they would delve a bit deeper every few months.

I think that in the situation Mrscoach described there is a good employee trying to put reason to bad management. The only way to fix bad management is to remove it from the equation, but putting a great employee into a managers position doesn't make a great manager. Assistant managers in my experience are either very short term, meaning they either advance or are kicked to the curb. I always believe promoting from within is the best policy, but in some cases there may not be someone inside to full the position, this is where a lot of companies have "Assistant managers" and fail.
I am also a firm believer that you can't make a good manager, they are born, just like good leaders. You can however make a good leader a bad manager by sending them to a bunch of high priced seminars, a night MBA perhaps, god forbid they by "Management Books"
