I don't think this means much.  I've gotten the welcome to
the company lunch from every place I've worked in the
past 15 years.  In my last position, there was a group 
lunch during the final round of interviews and another my
first week on the job (after that, I was the one with the
expense acct who did all the lunch buying, and yes, I held
a welcome group lunch for every new hire).  The place was
still a terrible environment for writers, and I spent the
three years I was there constantly girding for battle to
defend the dept and its members.  The one thing I can say
about that place, though, they sure had a good budget for
entertainment.

Does your manager take you to lunch on your first day on

a group lunch with the team.
