Find the fine print before it finds you.
Upload your employment contract to surface restrictive clauses, repayment obligations, unclear language, missing protections, and practical questions to raise before signing.
Private analysis. Informational guidance, not legal advice.
Understand what the contract actually requires
Employment contracts often combine compensation terms with ongoing restrictions and post-employment obligations. The practical effect may be spread across several sections, exhibits, or policy references.
Offer Unpacked summarizes the document by topic and calls attention to wording that is unusually broad, discretionary, one-sided, or incomplete.
Common clauses worth a closer look
Candidates commonly overlook bonus eligibility conditions, signing-bonus repayment, equity forfeiture, invention assignment, outside-work restrictions, non-solicitation, non-compete language, and the employer’s ability to change policies unilaterally.
A flag does not automatically mean a clause is unlawful or unacceptable. It means the term may affect your decision and deserves to be understood in the context of your role, location, and leverage.
Use the report to ask better questions
The strongest pre-signing questions are concrete: when a bonus is earned, what happens to equity after termination, whether repayment is prorated, which work belongs to the company, and whether restrictive terms apply after a layoff.
Offer Unpacked converts document findings into a prioritized list of clarifications and negotiation points. For legal conclusions, enforceability, or material risk, bring the original agreement to a qualified employment attorney.
Frequently asked questions
Does the review tell me whether a clause is enforceable?
No. Enforceability depends on jurisdiction and facts. The report highlights issues and questions, but a licensed attorney should provide a legal opinion.
Can it review non-compete and intellectual-property clauses?
Yes. The analysis can explain and flag non-compete, non-solicitation, confidentiality, invention-assignment, and related restrictions in the uploaded document.
Can I compare two employment contracts?
Yes. Offer Unpacked includes an offer-comparison workflow that can organize differences in compensation, benefits, restrictions, and other written terms.
