It should be okay, but they definitely cut some big branches too, and to have a good point.

I love to see a full tree and had hoped they would leave mine intact since it is so young, especially in a relatively new suburb. I was told that they were instructed to prune any branches that are crossing over, or low growing. Quite a few of mine got lopped off. My main concern was if the wound from pruning leaves the tree succeptable to insect infestation or if they should be treating the open spot with some sort of sealant to ensure that boring insects woudn’t be able to easily infest the trees. I have no idea. I took pictures at the time also!
