I live in Arizona.
I worked for a tech company and I resigned recently. I believe that I signed a non-disparagement agreement upon being employed and that the agreement was effective for the duration of my employment there. My departure agreement includes a non-disparagement agreement as well.
I left the company because I felt as though the company's actions were unethical and, at times, liable to lawsuits. I honestly don't know how I feel about signing this agreement. I might be more open to signing it if the departure pay was increased as I don't have another position lined up just yet and could use the money.
Would the agreement prevent me from leaving an honest Glassdoor review? Could I anonymously share the information about the company's practices and policies without consequences? If I do choose to sign the agreement, is there an appropriate way to negotiate a higher departure pay?
More detailed information about the non-disparagement clause can be shared if needed. It looks pretty standard to me though - it is also a mutual agreement so the company wouldn't be able to disparage me either, which could be beneficial, considering my abrupt exit.
