Most. But not all.
Some are quite happy arguing their point of view, sometimes quite stridently, without fear of that argument affecting their work relationships, or indeed friendships.
Sadly, the psych testing and HR interference is more likely to produce more of those insecure types that are yes men in public and hide behind a nom de plume to take cheap shots and throw insults. .
