		matt4077 on June 21, 2017 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Uber Founder Travis Kalanick Resigns as C.E.O. Kalanick is no Steve Jobs. Steve Jobs was an asshole at times, but that behaviour was always about driving people hard to create what he considered a perfect product. Kalanick's brohaviour has nothing to do with economic success. You absolutely do not need to harass people sexually to be successful.

It wasn't Kalanick's who did it but his employees. And guess what, Apple had a fair number of stories about toxic work culture and sexual harassment too.
