One of our Macs is stuck with a spinning icon when logging in to the standard user account created using the script: https://www.hexnode.com/mobile-device-management/help/script-to-create-new-users-on-mac/
Able to login to the admin account after a force reboot though. Anyone facing similar issues?

Did you try booting up your Mac in Safe mode? Safe mode will prevent loading 3rd party drivers & extensions and will clear a huge chunk of cached data. Logging in safe mode is a troubleshooting method to fix any unexpected software behavior.
Had the same issue on a couple of my Macs as well. However, it automatically gets fixed after a couple of restarts. Or if it doesn’t, booting up in safe mode fixes it.Not sure about the what the issue is really. As I recall from a subreddit I read, updating the NVRAM/PRAM also seems to help.
@Bram @Luuk Appreciate your inputs. On testing a bit further, it seems like some of the ‘dscl’ commands have issues with latest macOS versions. Not really sure though.
An alternative script given in Hexnode’s script repo which executes the ‘sysadminctl’ command worked all right!
