It makes me sad seeing the narrative on forums like this and elsewhere shift to "Tech companies are all bloated and Elon is right". Anyone saying that is missing the point entirely IMO. Even if if it were 100% true and everything Elon has done up to now is correct, it's still a complete travesty the way it's been executed. You want to come in and make big sweeping changes? Cut dead weight? Fine. But have some god damn empathy and also take a minute to figure out why everything is the way that it is before you start throwing your weight around. All the rest of the dialog is beside the point in my mind.

Complaining, requesting change, then leaving was how it went.
I still feel conflicted, "did I do the wrong thing, am I the weakling?"
I now better appreciate that asserting my boundaries is all that keeps me safe from that kind of unhealthy situation, for me.
