An offer letter, line by line: what binds and what decorates
The paragraphs people read twice are the ones that commit nobody to anything. Three short clauses carry the whole document.
Contracts
Every post filed under Contracts, newest first. Posts can carry several topics, so they show up on more than one of these pages.
Employer tuition assistance, and the clause that makes you pay it back
Most tuition benefits are reimbursement, not payment, and most carry a service period. The clauses to find in the policy before you enroll anywhere.
The contract clauses that matter: at-will, notice, and who owns your ideas
The clause people worry about is the least predictable one. The one that reaches furthest is about inventions, and it is four lines long.
A severance agreement, annotated: what you are being asked to sign away
The number is the part everyone reads. The clauses that outlast the payment are the ones with no number in them at all.
