IT Consultant Question:

Every company has a culture just like every person has a personality. You won’t get along with everyone, and not every company’s culture will be a good fit for you. Many companies have demanding cultures. This can be particularly true in IT departments, where deadlines can be tight, expectations sky-high, and workloads heavy.

Asking about the company culture can give you a good idea of whether or not you want to work with this particular employer. It may look great from the outside, but it might not be right for you. Consider the interviewer’s response carefully.
