This one is tricky because it depends on a few things.

  1. Can existing team members able to answer your questions
  2. Are there any SME still around to use as a reference
  3. How good is the company onboarding
  4. Has the company provided everything you need to get up and running

But I'd say if you are not being productive after two weeks (depending on the role) then there is a problem somewhere that needs addressing.
