You get a personalized welcoming letter from the top executives after you accept the offer and you immediate managers also send you separate welcoming letters which make you feel welcome and valued. The company takes time during the new hire orientation to go over the companies vision, mission and other related topics, including benefits and the culture. You have access to a lot of information which reflects on the trust the company puts on you. Personally, I found it invaluable. Not because I necessarily need to know those to perform my job, but it shows the company values and treats you as a family member who they can trust with the information. The “need to know” concept may be something that security-conscious people would mention but it also means that the company doesn’t “trust” you.
