The exact prompt

Here is my employment contract. Point me at the clauses that most commonly disadvantage employees, notice, probation, restrictive covenants, pay review, intellectual property, and quote where each appears in mine, in plain English. Then give me the questions to raise with the employer or a solicitor. Do not tell me whether to sign, and flag anything important that seems to be missing.

The raw output

# I'd be happy to help analyze your contract, but I don't see it attached.

Please paste the contract text, and I'll:

1. **Locate and quote** clauses covering:
   - Notice periods
   - Probation terms
   - Restrictive covenants (non-compete, non-solicitation)
   - Pay review processes
   - Intellectual property ownership
   - Any other potentially restrictive terms

2. **Explain in plain English** what each clause actually means and where it typically disadvantages employees

3. **List critical questions** to ask your employer or a solicitor about each area

4. **Flag gaps** — important protections or clarifications that are conspicuously absent

Once you share the contract, I can give you a detailed, clause-by-clause breakdown.
