It's obvious, I have my employees sign them when they start working on certain projects, it's done to protect my financial interest. If they share what they've done with a competitor before it's ready, or the inner workings of something, then they will be disciplinary proceedings. I'm sure I'm not the only one on this site to do the same, and it's particularly useful in the software fields.

I have had sales people sign them but they are almost impossible to enforce without taking a big hit to your reputation and your wallet.
It is not the full algo as such but bits and pieces and knowing how the organization functions. I can see a large SEO company doing better with a person like that in the back room.
From what I can tell, they seem to keep the top people with high pay and good treatment.
