Cause
It is Expected Behavior.
Resolution
According to the engineering team, the column width for the hire date field is set to be 14em instead of 6em to support other locales. As the executive review always reads the latest configuration, it will override 14em and point to 6em or whatever value is defined in design worksheet page. That is why, we don't see the issue on the executive review page.
The changes to fix this issue on the worksheet are invasive and might end up breaking the alignment of column headers. The proposal from our UI engineer is to not touch this logic because of the risk associated with the change.
So as of now this is Expected behaviour. In future if we have any update on this, we will update this KBA.
