I am not surprised that companies that are broken enough to do the outsourcing in the first place are also often broken enough to have this term in severance agreements. But it really should not be standard.

- andrei_says_ 10y agoCompany lawyers think of maximizing the company's power and safety in every contract. If the clause is not illegal and improves that equation, it'll be standard. Morality notwithstanding.
- Hondor 10y agoIs it really broken to fight an artificial government imposed monopoly, which is what labor restrictions on foreigners is? This isn't something that's going to make the incumbents destitute. They're IT workers, eminently hire-able and highly paid. I'm sure they can cope with a pay cut unless they've been living beyond their means, which would get them in trouble no matter what their income.
