Ask HN: Do FANGs/big tech companies budge on IP clauses for L3-L5 engineers?
I want the IP agreement i sign to only include the work done for the company, and to exclude anything i do on my own time
i was thinking of trying to work for FANG (or whatever big tech companies pay similar) because they tend to pay a lot more than smaller/mid size companies
i wanted to know if FANGs budge on IP clauses for L3 to L5 level engineers. or if they just laugh in your face and say "sign or someone else will"
i ask because I don't want to spend the next 6-12 months grinding LC if they don't generally do that
