I have experience in recruiting and onboarding at a big company you’ve heard of, and you would be surprised (or maybe not) that their practices come down to lack of internal tools, and sometimes competency of the staff. I would email onboarding to hide attendees/recipients in the Zoom call or to transition to work emails moving forward. I would also suggest that they establish compliance practices with your personal data. The story of receiving your equipment early is probably made to be a favor to you more than anything. The team that likely initiated the send out did it at their earliest discretion, not because they wanted to hold up your holiday plans. They get a request and fulfill it. The timing was just inconvenient, call it unlucky. I would share this feedback with the relevant people. If those teams were managed competently, they would use your experience to improve practices.
