I forgot about the 45+ work week requirement. I would not take a position
that regularly requires more than 40 hours a week. There is no such as a
well-managed project (all of my jobs are projects) that generally requires
more than 40 hours a week. Some weeks, a project will require more hours
than other weeks, but the extra hours are compensated appropriately.

It sounds like the group could benefit from well-organized, solid project
management. That is something to consider to manage future issues.
