That is the case for anyone who negotiates a contract with anyone else. If there is something that you want, you have to make sure that it's in the contract. The more they want you, the more leverage you have. The standard contract for any business tends to be very much slanted towards the "company". Would you walk into a car dealership and take the first car they pushed you towards without any negotiation?
