    I agree. I’ve never been a fan of non-competes for the plebes. It gives the companies unfair power for nothing in return.

      Imo the only way non-competes should be used is if the employeer intends on paying the former employee during the non-compete period.

        agreed. I have seen them abused many times.

        If you have that much company secrets then they should pay you until those age away. Those are protected by patents and other laws anyways.
