I can give 2 examples:

1) They had a big party a couple of years ago where they had a large display that showed where several famous tech people were at the very moment in Uber cars. They did this without notifying or getting permission from said people[0],[1].

2) They rented the building next to ours for training. We rent several parking spaces in the lot on the other side of our building from the city. They repeatedly parked in our reserved spots and told their drivers to park there even after repeatedly being told they were reserved (purchased by us) and not to park there. They would literally move their cars, wait 5 minutes, then move them back. During breaks they would stand in front of the door to our building smoking and acting surly as if to try to intimidate us. I don't know how high up the management chain our people went, but it was clear they weren't going to do anything about it. Eventually our neighbor kicked them out!
