Not at the time he was doing the Lisa they didn't. Remember that Jobs got fired and it was because he came across as a manipulative asshole - crying in meetings at odd times, things like that. Even towards the end of his life, Jobs was detested by a lot of people. Yes he had some loyal people who worked for him but even they tended to say they were loyal to him because he made them successful, not because they loved him as a person.
