Sorry but no. I still have to see a single company that REALLY have a documentation culture, meaning a new employee can find a book "welcome here, an overview of anything" and from this all relevant, up to date, organized information of anything she/he have to know, and yes, this would be really helpful, but I'm a human not working in prostitution so I have no user manual.
I normally have contracts I honor and I expect the other party honor as well, I have a reasonable human flexibility, tolerance etc, and all of that demand no manual. The company demand an onboarding manual and tried practice as much as possible because from remote the sole hard part is that. For all, in person or remote, the rest is about documentation in general, not crappy abandoned wikis, not "read the code" on a codebase that would demand years to be understood fully and change faster than such timeframe and so on.
I reject a future of meat-based robots on sale, I like a future of remote workers, humans, that know what to expect each others, because we are all humans, peers between peers.
