20jilicom| OpenAI clarifies dispute over separation terms: employee equity has never been recovered

Fast Technology News on May 1920jilicomUltraman, CEO of OpenAI, recently made a clear response to previous rumors about "hush" resignation terms on social platform X.

Ultraman made it clear that since the establishment of OpenAI, there has never been a precedent for recovering the vested equity of employees. He emphasized that even if employees leave without signing a severance agreement or disagreeing to a non-derogation agreement, the company will not take any action to deprive them of their rights.

Since November last year, at least seven security-focused members of OpenAI have resigned or been fired for various reasons. However, most of these departing employees chose to remain silent and refused to publicly discuss the reasons behind them.

According to internal employees, some departing employees choose to remain silent because OpenAI will require employees to sign agreements with non-disparaging clauses when they leave. Once employees refuse to sign, they will lose the OpenAI options they previously obtained, which is undoubtedly a huge financial loss.

A former OpenAI employee revealed in an anonymous leak that the company's entry documents clearly stipulate that20jilicom:"Within 60 days of leaving the company, employees must sign a separation document containing a 'general waive'. If the signing is not completed within the specified time, the equity benefits owned by the employee will be cancelled."

In response to this situation, Ultraman said that OpenAI is actively reviewing and revising the terms of the existing separation agreement. He emphasized: "If any former employee who signed these old agreements is worried or upset about this, I am very willing to communicate directly with them and provide necessary help and explanations."
