Reply to comment by LonelyGamer1337 in LPT - If told you are being hired for a job, before accepting, ask to review any docs you'll be expected to sign when you show up. by BE33_Jim
It seems incredibly unlikely that a company would rescind an offer for politely asking to review any documents in advance. If you ask politely and they refuse, that might be a sign you didn’t want to work there anyway.
Your example doesn’t really apply here because those employees refused to follow company guidelines. The post is not telling you to refuse, it’s saying to ask to review them.

Fair point and I will give you that. However my point is that:
A) NDAs and the like are not going to affect you anyways unless you violate them by disclosing information you were specifically told not to. Sign it anyways.
B) Non-compete contracts are the only thing worth reviewing here. Even still they are so astronomically unlikely to ever affect you anyways. Sign it anyways unless you're working in a very niche field.

My point is that there are people out there who would like to review the NDA, noncompete, etc before they start working. If you’re not one of those people, maybe this advice just doesn’t apply to you. 🤷♂️
