Debatable. The people of France gained more liberties than anyone else in contental Europe. Feudal rights abolished, internal trade barriers stripped away, eventually the best law code the world had seen to that point, etc… It was overwhelmingly positive for the people of France long-term.

Long-term, sure, but they quickly lost most of their gains in the short and medium term when Napoleon restored the monarchy.
