I'm curious about these claims about IP and NDA. I bet they're perfectly normal tech company stuff, but it's hard to tell with machine translation.
They're upset about "lifetime NDA"? Obviously if you can't talk about it you can't talk about it. The NDA doesn't go away if you leave the company. As for lifetime that's not that unusual, other it would be years at least.
They make a silly argument about even poems being owned by Tesla, the normal sort of IP clause for tech companies is anything you develop during work (and sometimes while employed, even if not at work / working on work - this is a real thing you need to watch out for) is owned by the company. I do have a problem with the more aggressive version of this type of clause but the basic concept is reasonable to protect the company. But in no reality is a tech company going to try to claim IP on your poetry, the attempt to make them sound even worse than reality (claiming software or other engineering/process development IP) just makes the union complaint sound ridiculous instead.
