Gotcha, thanks for the context. I've definitely left companies because of personality conflicts with coworkers. It's just unbearable sometimes. I'm a recruiter and I work with a lot of startups. Best recommendation I have without ruffling too many feathers is to ask about the founding team / management team and their previous success stories. It's not a perfect solution, but in my experience teams with a history of successful products or acquisitions have a lower level of bullshit. They're just more focused on the product and less focused on emotional games. If you don't mind ruffling some feathers, then maybe try to sneak in a comment about a slightly edgy topic or current event and see where it takes you. Otherwise, you can look for buzzwords in job posts that might signal company values you may or may not be in alignment with.
