I would say that even though it may be common, it still a clause in a contract that you don't need to sign.

If it's super important to you to be able to talk #### about your former employer (to the point you are actively trying to make waves),or reveal your severance, then that's a right you have as long as it's not defamation (depending on what other contracts you may have signed throughout your employment). Signing that agreement, agreeing to the clause, takes it away.

Get an employment lawyer if it's important to you, but I think probably most of us would try to fight for more money rather than the ability to talk #### if we were looking at legal counsel lol.
