Well, when you first start your job, you won't really know the people you are working with so I don't see how it is that much different.

  Incredibly different. I highly doubt a normal engineer is going to be giving a demo to their team with high stakes in the first three or so months. I understand if they're possibly a senior engineer, architect, or lead of some sort because they were probably hired with a plan to spearhead a specific project. I'd say in the average case a new engineer will have enough time to at least break the ice with their new team before being put into a high pressure situation.

    I gave a demo of my intro project after a month to my 100 person org at my last company and I was a new grad. In fact, when I was an intern, all interns did project demos at the end of their internship.

      Was the presentation of that demo standing between you and being fired or keeping the job?

      Was a hundred K on the line? Clock ticking? Random subject you couldn't have/hadn't prepared for? :D
