It sounds like you don't want a culture fit so much as you have a culture in mind that doesn't fit, and you don't want that one. Different culture fine, except from a particular range of damaging cultures.

I would suggest that the very fact this thread (and others nearby) exist indicate that "culture fit" really isn't a good term, given how much extra definition is required.
