That's a fundamental misunderstanding of what corporate culture means (and that misunderstanding is, in my experience, a sign that the culture is actually pretty bad). Comparing my previous and current positions, there's clear differences in what sort of behaviour is acceptable, what sort of behaviour is frowned upon, and what sort of behaviour is praised. This both in terms of the work product itself, and in the way we relate to each other as colleagues. I can also tell you in no uncertain terms that a culture I'm happy with is much stronger than money at producing the sort of motivation that keeps me producing "acceptable work".
