Just hiding how many jerks a company has until after the interview process is complete is not effectively any better - it could even be worse for people, as they could have had signal to avoid the jerk. The absence of evidence of some behavior or signal is not equivalent to it not being present at all.

In my experience, most companies have jerks - I’m not convinced it’s even avoidable reliably, as people come from many walks of life, and sometimes the walks form people to be jerks.

I work at Apple, where I’d say that jerks are a very low number of people I’ve interacted with (maybe a couple hundred employees so far) - I’ve seldom seen a company beforehand with less jerks percentage-wise, much less have processes that help with descalating arguments & deal with them quickly.
