Something to keep in mind is that when a breakup is a corporation vs. an employee, then the former has vastly unequal PR resources.

A bit different from two ordinary individuals.

I think there is a bias a lot of people have towards believing the organization, because the idea that bad things happen to decent people is discomfiting.

I hate the phrase "just world fallacy", it's not a fallacy, but it's certainly unpleasant to contemplate misfortunes that could happen to you, or me.

Experience with corporate litigation will change your opinions on whether individuals or organizations are more to be trusted.

I've been cheated by individuals far more than by corporations. I've also been involved with corporate litigation with a company that cheated me. (I won.)

I have had better experiences as an employee with large organizations than with small ones or individuals, myself.

But your first sentence sounds to me like "I've been walked on by mosquitos far more than by elephants".

On average, the elephants you meet probably won't be in the mood to bite or step on you. On average.
