Whether you go on with the job or not should be based entirely on how you personally feel about the situation. Maybe this bothers you but you’d like the opportunity to make a difference and try to shift the culture. Maybe you’re so bothered by it that you don’t want to work for them at all. Maybe it bothers you, but not enough to change your course. Maybe something else.
I think the one important thing to do is that, if you do pull out of the process, let them know why. Hiring people costs a lot of money, and perhaps seeing that there are actual consequences for letting their corporate culture be what it seems to be might help to drive home the message that this stuff matters enough to affect their bottom line, and that they should therefore take it seriously.
