Respect. Everyone says "Oh, we respect our team members!", but few do when the rubber meets the road.

I've always insisted on going out to lunch with my potential boss, and watch how they treat the servers. I've never regretted working with the ones who treated everyone with courtesy and politeness. I've regretted working with those who weren't.

I've seen this before but on the flip side. There was a CEO that would take candidates out for lunch, and would prior tell the waiter to intentionally mess up the order to see how the candidate would react.
