I work in an hr dept that is very clicky and difficult at times. When I started I had literally no training but I knew what needed to be done. Now we have a new hr generalist starting and literally management is holding his hand every step of the way for 2 weeks. I think this is a bit excessive, and yes you provide him the tools to succeed but he does not need to shadow everyone for 2 weeks. What are your thoughts? I was told he can’t be by himself self. That’s rediculous.

How long have you been there? Is it not possible that leadership has become enlightened and now wants the best possible onboarding experience for their new hires? Did you start as HR Manager, or as a generalist like this newbie?

Also, the word is "clique," not "click." It's actually pronounced "cleek," and it's a French word.

Perhaps a better question would be to ask yourself why this annoys you so much? Is it worth the energy to get upset because someone hired after you is getting a better onboarding than you did? I would see it as an improvement, even if I didn't personally benefit from it.
