I've worked for startups basically my entire professional career, and none of the startups I've worked for were like that. I've interviewed at/talked about consulting for some that had a bit of a frat-house vibe, and turned those down.
- The single sexual harassment claim I can recall was a huge deal that caused soul-searching about how that person was hired. (Don't know that that was the best reaction, but it was indicative of the concern.)
- When things that pushed ethical lines were mooted, that was talked about a lot, and, at least to my sense of morals, we rarely crossed them.
Bottom line - being a startup doesn't mean you're an Uber. Being an Uber means you're an Uber.
