I just got an email request from a former employer requesting I sign an attachment. Form is a declaration for utility patent application, and includes an assignment of all rights and interests to the company.

The application has already been filed, but dated a few months ago.

I haven't worked for this company in over a year.

They had a pay for patents program when I was there, person sending the email says I don't get paid since I don't work there anymore.

So I have to ask, other than getting my name on another patent, whats in it for me? Should I expect compensation?
