I'm noticing lots of people with both the opinion "I don't think I could work under a boss" and "hierarchies are efficient". But there's a tension between these two.

Efficiency properly understood isn't output per man-hour, it's output per unit unpleasantness. That follows from standard econ definitions of efficiency.

I would go even further and say it’s lack of autonomy instead of unpleasantness

High autonomy + high output = feel good 

Low autonomy + high output = feel bad
