Laterally relevant, I once left a company for this exact reason. Tons of little things making life impossible - no way to push for your ideas, admin BS for no good reason, CEO wanting to be Steve J a bit too much, meetings at 8:30AM (with multiple kids, it's a challenge), a few bad apples, pixel-perfectness, etc. All stuff that, one by one wouldn't matter, but overall made my grind my teeth sufficiently for me to leave. It was very hard for me to explain well why I didn't enjoy work, as all these seemed trivial and unimportant and made me feel like a dick for leaving. Overall I think the underlying reason was that things were a certain way and there was no way of influencing them whatsoever. Looking back I think the problem was also partially with me not accepting smaller things ; but there is such a thing as death by a 1000 paper cuts.
