Well there are (at least) two issues you're glossing over here:

1) Toxic workplace behavior is measurable, you can simply measure the wage premium paid by the so-called "toxic" employers or managers.

2) Bro culture may contribute to business success. I don't like that kind of 'culture', but it may help foster improved productivity in certain industries, and the lawsuits may just be a cost of doing business that's worth paying. Again, this isn't how I live my life, but it is conceivable that this is a workable model.
