Sometimes pads are defective. Sometimes they are just noisey or ****ty pads. If they are high performance pads, it may be normal to squeal, depending on which ones you got. Sometimes it's the rotors that cause the squeal. Could be worn or loose hardware. It's hard to tell without doing an in-person inspection. Try a couple 60-0 hard stops to see if it goes away!

Take the pads out and put some 3m brake lube on the sides and backs of the pads per the FSM. Mine squealed from 5-0mph a few thousand miles after new, but haven't since. I make sure to use plenty of brake lube. I assume you're on OEM Brembo pads? If not, and you're on aftermarket pads, then you may have left off the shims, which are needed for noise reduction.
