Takeaways

Getting the employee experience right from the start is crucial for organizations as it ensures that new hires are up to speed and able to deliver value.

Line managers play a key role in the onboarding process and need to set expectations, keep people accountable, and bring them into the company culture.

Understanding company culture can be done through Glassdoor reviews, exit interviews, and conversations with team leads and culture champions.

Improving employee experience doesn’t necessarily require a lot of resources or money, and feedback from new employees can be gathered through check-ins and business partner relationships.
