This is indeed a valid question to ask as a part of interview. How would a company describe its culture, what would they choose to emphasize to you.
Likewise, in you own professional experience, what does stand out as important for you workplace culture wise.
As for the US companies, they are quite diverse in general and industry wide. Some companies may be quite "international" in that sense. Not sure which industries may have a larger Western European presence on work force, but anything related to academia or research may have a geater chance to encounter post-docs from Europe.
