How does the company view its pilots? How does crew scheduling treat pilots?
I recommend putting very little weight on most of these responses. Hopefully you are new to 121. We need fresh blood that is not a product of the old guard.
Culture is made up of the collective behavior of those you work with, and it’s real. Tell me culture doesn’t matter the first time you have a coworker with a god complex run across the terminal after you yelling your name so they can dress you down for not wearing your hat. Or have a Capt tell you nine times between the FAF and gate how stupid you are after you look down for 3 seconds to put ground in standby at 2,000 feet.
At the end of the day, these things aren’t a big deal for most, but culture is real and it does impact your life in a similar manner as being intentional about who you hang out with.
