On my formal employment offer, it states the following

"If you accept this offer for employment, your employment with XXX will be ?At Will?. As a result, you will be free to resign from your employment at any time, and XXXXX may terminate its employment relationship with you at any time, with or without cause. "

From what I understand, they are covering their asses incase I suck. But I am wondering if formal Employment offer sheets like this should contain information about benefits / health insurance. Or is this document more suited for the acceptance of the position for the set salary and "at will" status.

Do any of you have any knowledge or experience wit "At Will" employment contracts, was there benefits, or any kind of guaranteed time at the company?
"at will" means notice is not required for quitting or for being let go... so it is a "condition of employment" other conditions would be your salary and your benefits....a decent employer would have presented that to you along with the "at will" condition.......
