What others have said about the onboarding process so far sounds pretty spot on for a startup that is growing faster than its processes. Tbh, the onboarding process sounds exactly like my current workplace's process when I was onboarded.

However, your manager sounds dismissive of your concerns which potentially is a red flag. I'd try not to focus on the messy onboarding process but rather pay attention to whether your manager is someone you would like to be working under. Maybe these vendor calls might be a blessing in disguise.
