^Pretty much this, I can't even tell you how fast I would fire an employee who did only the things Shane himself outright admitted to in his letter if he were someone I had responsibility for(I'd feel bad about losing the talent, but to keep the office from devolving into self entitled employee's who don't do what they are told and feel it ok to be antagonistic in the office in general, they really had to).

His letter also indicates personal issues a person cannot admit to or see until they step back to reflect with perspective, and the personal hell he described(family problems, Overworking, arguments with coworkers, etc), Shane was in a state in which he could not disentangle his problems from the people around him or recognize what problems were of his own creation.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying there weren't issues his coworkers/employers were causing, but at least a few of the issues he cites are just "growing pains" of an average business where the employers are still figuring out how make actual decisions for a business(professional standards, monitoring/fixing potential copyright infringement/shortcuts they may have made, actually treating employee's as such and not as fellow CEO's/collaborators).

If you ever receive training in office conflict resolution, I invite you to re-read the letter with this training in mind and consider just how often Shane's own actions actually escalated the problems if not just allowing them to ferment and get worse by not distancing himself from other disgruntled employees or attempting to understand his employers point of view before making decisions he knew they wouldn't like.
