Anecdotally, no.
In my experience, the people who are quick to Google the new hire/candidate are salivating for a way to pre-emptively discredit "the new guy".
I've encountered several people who are pretty obsessive about this and not only Google everyone they meet but have alerts set up for their own names.
I have a relatively unique name yet you won't find anything about me in the first pages of Google results. If you dig, you'll eventually hit a LinkedIn or G+ pages which I've been very careful about sharing anything on.
