Founders

Why do so many famous Founders have a reputation for being complete assholes to their employees? 

Elon, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, etc. 

Were they successful because of this behavior, or in spite of it?

As an inverse dataset, what's the counterpoint?
What famous founders were (or are) deeply loved by their employees?

One well loved dude I can think of is Patrick Collison.
Also, Sam Altman fared pretty well over the weekend.

(on the asshole side ↑, my feeling is that it's "in spite of" but with nuanced caveats).

Thich Nhat Hanh is quite an amazing entrepreneur to me. He built a huge publishing enterprise to sustain his monastic communities for decades to come 🤔

Oh, yes yes yes.
And very high on the deeply loved scale. Nice.
What a beautiful guy.
