Meh, I suspect not. I've worked places where we assumed a 12 month ramp up, and even then you'd probably only be at 80-90%. Fully embedded, could mentor new staff was more like 2-3 years. That's an extreme example, but it's always jarring to move to the bottom of a knowledge mountain and start climbing again. People expect it, its ok. Provided your attitude and aptitude towards picking up the necessary knowledge is good, most organisations factor in that ramp up time. We had reason to pull out a project plan from just after I started my current role, and a burst out laughing.. every task I had was "safe make work for the new guy because we don't trust him yet"
