Terrible onboarding - IT Test Engineer General Dynamics Mission Systems Employee Review

I worked in IT. There was no on-boarding whatsoever, if I had a question, it was "go ask this or that guy". They rushed to get me in there, I would have liked a week off between contracts (I had not had a vaca in 6 months) but they apparently needed me badly. Badly enough that I sat there for 3 days at an empty desk with no laptop on Thanksgiving week when everyone was out. When I actually started working about 2 weeks later, what I thought was a Linux scripting role turned out to be a technical writer. How about just hiring a technical writer???? My number one priority was working on a project not yet funded. Complete waste of time.
