I've seen no abuse at all in industry. Only attentive, genuinely kind management that worked extremely hard and was more than fair.

That's one data point... and work is frustrating for reasons other than abusive managers/supervisors.

One theory for the difference here is that, if you're good at your job, management loves you. You make your manager look good. Conversely, in academia, if you're very smart, you may end up embarrassing your supervisor by scooping them. I imagine incumbent academics are terrified of smart kids coming along and solving "their problem" that they've been working on for years.
