Exactly, if your work with a company is available to everybody then you are now worth much less to that company. It's also why you have to (generally) sign a non-disclosure agreement for these types of jobs, and I would say that these things help to foster competition between companies. That, and you don't want to make it even easier for other countries to reverse engineer your product.
