Noncompetes writ large are terrible policy. However, I do think at a given level of seniority/responsibility, they’re reasonable, subject to the usual limitations of time and place. He worked for AWS for ~18 months and then shopped himself to a direct competitor.
- NonEUCitizen 6y agoCalifornians do not consider non-competes reasonable at all, even at that "seniority" level. Search for "Mark Hurd Oracle HP" -- HP was not able to win that case in California.
