Employment Relationship: Your employment with the Company will be “at will.” This means that the Company and you are free to terminate your employment at any time, for any reason, or for no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you are superseded by this offer letter. This is the full and complete agreement between you and the Company on this term. No statements in this offer letter or in any other Company document constitute an employment contract, nor do they alter your at-will status. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company (other than you).
We expect you’ll devote your entire working time for or at the direction of the Company, use your best efforts to complete all assignments, and comply with the Company’s policies and procedures in place from time to time. During your employment with the Company, you may not engage in any other employment or paid projects that conflict with the business of the Company or that could inhibit your ability to fulfill your duties to the Company, unless the Company has previously approved the other activity in writing.
By accepting this offer of employment, you agree that, throughout your employment with the Company, you will perform your duties loyally and conscientiously, and to the full extent of your ability. You also agree to observe all rules and regulations that the Company has, or may establish, governing the conduct of its business or its employees. The Company is an equal opportunity employer, and believes in the full worth and value of its diverse workforce. As such, it does not tolerate any form of harassment or illegal discrimination, and fully enforces its policies protecting all employees from illegal discrimination and harassment.
Because your position is classified as “exempt” under current wage and hours laws, you won’t be eligible to receive overtime pay.
Covenants Agreement: This offer of employment is conditioned on you signing the enclosed non-disclosure and invention assignment agreement (the “Covenants Agreement”). By accepting the Company’s offer of employment and signing below, you agree that you have no agreement with or obligation to any prior employer that conflicts with you working for the Company and that you’ve provided the Company with copies of any agreement you have with a prior employer that could impact your employment with us.
The terms set forth in this letter and in the enclosures are intended to and do supersede all and any prior employment agreements, understandings and promises between the Company and you concerning the terms of your employment with the Company. All such prior agreements, understandings and promises are null and void.
Work Authorization: Our offer of employment is also contingent upon your satisfactory completion of reference and background checks, proof of your ability to work in the United States, and a satisfactory review of all prior restrictive covenant agreements. If, based on unique circumstances, you start work before the Company has completed those inquiries, you’ll be deemed to be a conditional employee. If we ever learn of any false or misleading information in your employment application, we reserve the right to immediately terminate your employment.
