    Lol I don’t understand. So when you get hired somewhere, you just shake hands and go to a desk and start working? You don’t sign any employment contract outlining role responsibilities, compensation, NDA, expectations, background check, bank deposit information, tax information, etc?

    I don’t believe you.

      Title, start date and time, job title is about all that’s on the “contract”.

      Rolls and responsabilities, not anything else, are not defined.

      You get an offer letter that spells some of that out, but it isn’t a binding contract.

      An employment relationship in the United States is presumed to be “at-will,” i.e., terminable by either party, with or without cause or notice. Indeed, a majority of employees in the United States are employed on an “at-will” basis, without a written employment contract, and only with a written offer of employment that outlines the basic terms and conditions of their employment.
