Many of the disagreeable personalities I dealt with over the years were that way to co-workers and direct reports. They were completely different when dealing with their superiors. They did well because of that, even when employee opinion surveys (if they were managers) were factored in.

To really get into the work environment, either one has to do ethnographic field work, or make assumptions about disagreeability based on other factors.
