You are omitting the sentences immediately afterwards. "Non disclosure agreement" is just a word, the provisions are what are important. > Not only did it bar me from making any disparaging comments about BCG or my work experience, but I wouldn’t even be allowed to reveal the existence of the non-disclosure agreement itself. I concede that the title is a bit sensationalist, but it is essentially accurate. BCG did offer the author $16k to not write anything about them, including this story. > Also, maybe everyone at MIT knows who "BCG" is, but nobody outside MIT does, that's for sure. I am not at MIT or even loosely affiliated with MIT. I know that BCG stands for Boston Consulting Group in the context of consulting. Also, it's kind of like IBM, you don't really need to know that it stands for International Business Machines, that cluster of initials has an identity all by itself in a certain context.
