Two key areas become a part of each person's organizational experience immediately upon hire - training/development and performance management. New employee orientation and the probationary period (typically the first 90-days of employment) are the employee's first exposure to two vital organizational programs. Depending on one's position, both training and evaluation can greatly affect performance and orientation into the organization's culture. However, both can be fraught with problems: training from the aspect of return on investment (ROI), and performance evaluations from the aspect of usefulness and relevance.

New employee training programs include an orientation to the culture and organizational mission, vision and values. They also may include job specific training that is required for specific job functions.
