Below are some ideas that could help you understand and relate to a company’s culture:

REMEMBER – first impressions count!
Make a determined effort to mix with your colleagues – this will help you integrate more quickly and become an accepted member of the team. Try to learn a little bit about everyone.
Go out to lunch – and with different people each day. Barriers are often dropped outside of the workplace and you may learn something different, even if only in an hour.
Don’t be afraid to speak up – remember your colleagues are also getting to know you and how your role fits within their organization.
Observe your surroundings;
1. How do colleagues react to things? Emotions reflect what is important to people
2. What is displayed on bulletin boards and in communal areas?
3. How do people communicate with each other? Is communication written, verbal, informal or formal, what tone does it take?
4. How much interaction is there between colleagues?
