From my previous job experience, I have learned the hard way that the initial training goes a long way in an employee’s success, productivity, and the length the employee may last at the position. If someone is just thrown into action with no proper training, they will be lost and will not work the way they should work. It will add a lot of stress to the employee and cause them to regret applying there and will probably end up leaving or quitting.
