I did something similar to a Google employee once at a conference. Sorry to that person, I was also a righteous prick. Definitely not the right way to go about it.

Don't be too hard on yourself. Given that these companies are structured to keep criticism from reaching the people profiting from the bad decisions, there aren't a lot of good options. Giving an earful to somebody paid to be their buffer isn't great, but neither is just accepting the awfulness.

Not sure why the parent comment to this is downvoted - orgs use layers to shield management the world over.

I think making people uncomfortable can be good for them, I am a xoogler and I share my shame with them.
