The product or service the company is selling or producing.
Tbh, I have to believe in a company's product or service or vision before I can envision Working with them. It's that belief that drives my enthusiasm and passion and general productivity in the office.

Another thing too is the company culture. Although, tbh, it's not very easy to spot a company that will stress your mental health from the onset, but I look out for little clues and subtle messages that can give me an idea on what it's like working there.

The way the job is represented always plays a big role.
More often, if the job description is lighthearted and fun, it is a representation of the company.
Also reach out to other staff in the company and get their insights.
