Employee socialization is the process by which new employees understand the company's policies, the internal culture, how the company hierarchy works and the ways to function effectively in the organization.

I do agree.
In an organizational setting, socialization refers to the process through which a new employee 'learns the ropes,' by becoming sensitive to the formal and informal power structure and the explicit and implicit rules of behavior. See also organizational culture and orientation.
