Will I Fit in Here? Decoding an Organization's Culture
Two of the most central lessons of organizational culture are that (1) different companies have very different cultures and subcultures, and (2) the fit between a person and the culture is a critical factor in determining job success and satisfaction. With that in mind, assume you have just received two job offers and both firms have offered the same pay, same job description, and same geographic location. So your hope is to begin to sort out which of those firms would be the best fit for you. What types of culture differences are most important in organizations? What questions would you ask? What would be the sources of information (systems, signs, traditions) you would seek to help determine the nature of each culture, and your potential fit?
