Interview process is great...new employee onboarding, not so much - Consultant Appirio Employee Review

I was hired to be a Consultant for Appirio. I went through the interview process, which was stellar but after that, that is when things took a turn. We agreed on a start date, I left my current company and that night, which was the business day prior to starting at Appirio, I received a phone call from them saying they were going to push my start date back nearly two months, due to lack of pipeline. We eventually agreed on a new start date and from there on, I was very turned off. The new employee onboarding process is basically non existent. There was very little training and no real direction/guidance outside of a few items. My mentor quit the company a few weeks after they were assigned to me and was never assigned a new one. The training was a series of very long and boring training videos recorded the most monotone person I have ever heard. Not engaging and were all several hours in length. Following these long and drawn out training videos were a series of tests that you needed to pass to become certified on the product, however, some more hands on training would have been great or even some sort of communication with the company we were implementing, to shadow, shares best practices, etc., but this was also non existent. I left Appirio a while ago and I still think back to my experiences I had, which did seem to be isolated to me and I think of how disappointed I was with everything!
