Any group of human beings is going to be composed of the typical mix of d-bags, average schmoes, and people you want to emulate and learn from.

The key is figuring out who is who as quickly as possible so you can ignore those who deserve to be ignored, and listen to those who deserve to be listened to. With the caveat that even the d-bags might have something to teach you, so while you might have to deal with their d-baggedness, it is best to not alienate them if at all possible. Even a jerk might be good at their job.
