I would be very unhappy if a non disparagement agreement were sprung on me when I left the company. And I would be very reluctant to sign one entering any company.
Fair enough! But perhaps disparaging enough things could affect the value of equity, though probably by less than refusing to sign a non-disparagement agreement and not getting your vested PPUs.
Does that make you reconsider whether having the equity might give you action-altering (and, particularly, speech-altering) incentives?

Luckily we don’t have those at Google Deepmind.
