I had an employer hit me with an even more egregious non-compete. It said I couldn't work for 12 months for anyone in a market they were in, or in any market their competitors worked in.
Our little sub-$1million startup was selling devices that competed with devices from a bunch of mega players like Dell, IBM and Amazon. Who's left to work for if you can't work for anyone who competes with Amazon?
