The offer letter answers one question and leaves several open
Accepting an offer confirms that a candidate wanted the role and the organization wanted the candidate. It does not confirm that the role was scoped accurately, that the team is set up to onboard the person well, or that expectations on both sides actually match. Those questions are usually still open on day one.
Early friction is common and rarely visible from outside
The first months of a placement are where small mismatches, in expectations, in role scope, in team fit, tend to surface. Whether they get resolved or allowed to compound often depends on whether anyone outside the immediate team is paying attention, since the people inside it are often too close to the situation to flag it early.
Ongoing support is what turns a placement into a lasting team
Checking in after a placement, not just to ask if things are going well but to actually surface and help resolve friction while it is still small, is what separates a placement that lasts from one that quietly fails and gets replaced a year later. That support is a distinct piece of work from the hiring itself, and it is easy to skip precisely because the hiring already looks finished.
