Rickover had a reputation for striking fear into the hearts of anyone interviewing with him for naval positions. He'd ask tough questions and expected you to have the answers. You either knew your stuff and got the position or you left his office with your tail between your shaking legs.
My guess is, this is how Rickover kept his position for so long. People were too afraid of him to question anything he did. Rickover had no qualms about handing your head to you on a platter.
It's the old adage about being a ruler: it's better to be feared, than loved.
I think he was a bully. He was mediocre so he hated "mediocrity" in others so he couldn't be accused of it. They always try to be seen as what they aren't.
