Welcome to hell.
Middle Management type of jobs are demanding and frustrating. You have to keep your superiors happy, and also keep a close relationship with your team members. It's not an easy role to keep everything balanced.
If you manage to slowly work your way up in the corporate ladder, things might become better.
That really depends on the culture of the company and your mindset. If you think it is going to be hell it is going to feel like hell.
You work more with people and less with computers, but ultimately you are still working on solving problems. Instead of inside code on a computer it is inside a team within a larger organization.
That might be the case, I only have experience in big companies, where you were an insignificant cog in a mechanism nobody understands.
