A: like him

B: get/come to like him

C: get along with him

I think A and C are OK, but "C" seems to be the better choice considering the context—I think your getting along with the boss is more important than your liking him.

All four are heard. I'd say version A is the least likely because "come to like him" is available. "Get to like him" is informal for "come to like him" and is inferior because "get to" in that position can mean "have the opportunity to", which is not what you mean.
