I recently accepted a role at Mastercard as a SRE. Within the offer letter, I noticed it mentioned there is a 6 month “observation period”. My ask is, what is the level of difficulty programming for Mastercard? I have some experience in bash and python scripting which is what the hiring manger was looking for. I told him during the interview on the scale of 1 - 5 (5 being best), I am a 3 for bash and 2.5 for python but willing to learn and take on new challenges. I would like some input as a way to better prepare myself as I am a bit worried of this “observation period” and unknown the difficulty of an SRE and expectation to ramp up in 6 months. Edit: TC 98K I am coming from a 2 year background as cloud support with Windows background

Don't worry about it. A lot of companies do this. If you aren't lazy, you won't have any problems.
Do not worry about it. Its just standard offer language. This is whats called a probationary period. Just don’t screw up royally and you will be fine.
Can I DM you for a referral? I wish to apply
Sure I am hiring.

Don't worry, they will fire you only if you literally can't code or move things. Scrutiny is not even remotely close to what one goes thru at Amazon.
I am hiring too in Missouri USA
Is it an SDE role? I want to apply
