The best way to tell if some company actually gives a shit about the above is to ask them what they are doing about it.
I interviewed at a company once where the answer to #1 is "we do 4-day work weeks and make sure people are actually working 32-hour weeks instead of 40-hours-in-4-days". They seemed like they actually gave a shit.
Ditto diversity - companies love to talk a lot of smack about hiring women and racial minorities, but ask them about actual programs, policies, or structures in place to pursue this goal and... crickets.
But yeah, in most places the answer to "what are you doing about these things you allegedly value" is "absolutely nothing".
