Those that started out wanting to change the job before they know the job have done nothing but make life difficult for themselves and me in the process. My problem has been people who show up on day one with a plan on how best to do the job. Would YOU accept that? I start by studying the system, my job procedures then ask my questions about my new ideas for the job. We can discuss your ideas when you know more as a group. I don't want you upsetting the group to test out new theories till I am comfortable with you knowing your job.

No, you go into a job with outside experience and observe the shortcomings and gaps in their processes using your experience. I started a new job in April and within a month had sealed up 3-4 gaps in their processes, and introduced a couple other ideas on how they can make more revenue. It's pretty much expected that a new hire does that in my world.
