While 350-360 is good it is probably disappointing as the Tories were expected to get any where between 395-405 when the campaign began , and 395-405 seats likely means the Tories would be safe for 10 more years, while with 350-360 its possible that they will lose next time. 

big majorities don't guarantee success at the next election - if they went in to the next election with Major-level popularity levels then they'd struggle a lot.

Major's majority essentially evaporated during his term, correct?
Yeah it was gone by 1996

So how low would Labour's seat count have to go for them to be able to oust Corbyn?  Below 180?
Corbyn isn't leaving, his base will just blame any setback on New Labour (never mind that they haven't been in power for a decade)
