At the end of this week I’ll have worked at my new company for a month. I’ve still yet to have a 1 on 1 with my manager. She has only spoken to me once. She had no role in hiring me so maybe that’s...

Set time with your manager and go in with your short and long term goals, questions, concerns etc. you can even start off with “I know we haven’t had much of a chance to connect yet, but I wanted to make sure I’m off on the right foot.” Ask them a lot of questions (how involved do you want to be in xyz, do you prefer a set weekly check-in or to just talk when we need to?)
etc) to make them feel more comfortable

Thats the issue and it’s political, but I still should have what the expectations are for me set up. I’m more than happy to be proactive and request to set up a one-on-one but this feels like such poor management to make me do that. What should I do? Talk to HR, the more senior person who hired me or just talk to my ‘manager’?

You might choose to leave the place because the onboarding was such garbage (I might) but at least make the situation more comfortable for yourself while you’re looking

Asking for a friend:
My friend received two job offers for Account Executive roles: a Mid-Market role with Confluent and an Enterprise role with ThoughtSpot. He’s conflicted because Confluent is a more established company, ThoughtSpot is Pre-IPO. Confluent is a lucrative product to sell and has established SDR reps so there’s a good blend of inbound and outbound sales. Thoughtspot is more of a startup culture where most of the sales comes from outbound and it’s a tougher sell.
