Trump gathered together numerous tech CEOs and other business leaders after becoming president, causing problems for some of those companies.

After Oracle Co-Chief Executive Safra Catz joined Trump’s transition team, a manager of cloud operations quit his job, detailing his reasons for doing so in a post on LinkedIn with hundreds of thousands of views.

In some cases, the efforts have been successful, as was the case when Uber drivers knocked the ride-hailing company's CEO Travis Kalanick for serving on Trump's White House advisory council. Kalanick has since resigned from the position after backlash from employees and customers.

Some job candidates have also canceled interviews at companies they say don't share their beliefs. Bloomberg reported that a 39-year-old lawyer canceled an interview at the global law firm Morgan, Lewis & Bockius after reading about the firm's Trump's ethics and conflicts-of-interest compliance.
