Is the startup along the same lines as the work you're doing now? My last job I was a Software PM in an engineering studio and they had a clause in the handbook that any outside work done was owned by the company.
One developer tried to put an app in the Android Store, he was making a business app and the company was a gambling company. And our employer said the app would be their property. So he just killed the effort.
I'd check for clauses like that also.
- tmaly 13y agoI checked and our IP clause is restricted to "scope of employment" I had previously spoken to our legal/compliance department and they said it was limited to the type of work I do. The idea we have for the startup is not related to the industry we work in.
