Well, As a bizarre counter thought...
My work PC, at least with all of the corporate fuckware installed...
I tend to see two behaviors when moving between work and home.
Either:
A - It won't go out of sleep, it basically forces a reboot.
Or,
B - It leaks memory that I can't free without a hard reboot, to where even copy-pasting becomes absolutely jank (my favorite nasty behavior; it double-processes paste operations, not fun when dealing with credentials...)
I do have 'local admin' and while I only checked a couple of times, both times it looked like even then I couldn't do a force kill/restart of whatever was jacking the thing up.
Meanwhile my wife's current 'my old' PC with the same amount of RAM as work laptop and probably lower/older CPU spec could last between forced windows updates without a reboot and a lot more general churn.

If there's one reason I'm bringing this up, it's because I know my work PC has a lot more 'kernel' type management stuff installed...
And yeah, workplace people in charge of that stuff gives that same weird 'blame the user' focus as what you describe.
