> Companies aren't going to rescind the offer because you strike out this line from the employment contract.

...except in this case that's exactly what happened? Legal was asked to waive the policy and they refused.



You don't ask legal to wave the policy, you remove the offending terms and hand back the revised version of the contract.


That's usually not how it works with employment contracts, especially at big software companies. I'm fairly certain this was given to the candidate using something like Digisign, which can be configured to not allow revisions from the signer.


Not once did I have an opportunity to do that. DocuSign and its ilk take care of that.
