Compare your situation with Erik Wolpaw's from Valve.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Wolpaw

In 2004, Wolpaw was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. Expecting his condition to require a departure from the company, he spoke with managing director Gabe Newell, who surprised him by offering an extended leave with pay. "Your job is to get better," Newell said. "That is your job description at Valve. So go home to your wife and come back when you are better."

On the scale of Monumental Douchebaggery from 1 to 10, we'll rate Gabe Newell a solid 1. Where would you rank your experience?

Any interesting details about AIM you could share? They log conversations, files shared, put it all in a database somewhere? I think I read something like that once.

Were you guys included in Jemima Kiss's propaganda conference starring unethical hack Leigh Alexander, or did Jemima just designate all the clickbait garbage writers on your website for that get-together?

Does it bother you guys at all that the company you work for has friends in bottom-of-the-barrel places, eager to break nearly every rule in the book when it comes to disclosure and making puff pieces for their friends?

Also, how do you feel about your company featuring Connie St. Louis, who has been proven to have created a false narrative of sexism by Sir Tim Hunt in order to further her own career by destroying his? Why are so many god awful people employed as your coworkers at the Guardian?
