What Guard-Clause catches in offer letters
Non-Compete Hidden in Your Offer
§8 — Restrictive Covenants
Many offer letters reference a separate restrictive covenant agreement you'll sign on day one. That document may restrict your ability to work in your field for 12–24 months after leaving.
IP Assignment Covering Side Projects
§6 — Intellectual Property
Your offer may include an invention assignment clause that covers everything you create during employment — including personal projects, open source contributions, and work on your own time and equipment.
At-Will with No Severance Guarantee
§3 — Employment Terms
The employer can terminate you at any time without cause or notice. There's no mention of severance, transition period, or outplacement support.
Clawback on Signing Bonus
§5 — Compensation
If you leave or are terminated within 12–24 months, you may be required to repay your signing bonus in full — even if the company initiates the separation.
