The biggest problems for the Soviets was the fact Stalin had killed off a lot of his top military leaders during his regime prior to WWII breaking out. He looked at them as a threat to his leadership and like any psychopath----Hitler, Sadam Hussein, etc. he feared they would topple him and take over in a coup.

Soviet Union must have been just beyond brutal. Stalin refused to evacuate cities, thinking it would cause soldiers to fight harder.
People were dying being overworked in the factories, you couldnt escape it.
