Has anyone looked into what "professional staff to executive and management personnel" means in practice? The broadest reading could include software engineers as "professionals" who report to "management personnel" (their engineering managers). That seems broad enough to make this basically useless, so I assume I'm missing something.
- loonster 5y agoI'm assuming it means executive secretary.
- Jcampuzano2 5y agoUntil it's used as a loophole and all engineers are classified as direct reports/employees of an assigned executive.

- macksd 5y agoThere are loopholes everywhere. Non-compete contracts for healthcare providers were already illegal in Colorado, but our pediatrician had to locate her new practice ~20 miles away from where she wanted because of a non-compete with her previous practice. She had already had a lawyer look into it and he assured her there was enough precedent that she couldn't win, despite the law being very clear, IMO.
- tomnipotent 5y ago> what "professional staff to executive and management personnel" means in practice We'll find out when the first company tries to enforce and the court defines "professional staff".
- HWR_14 5y agoProfessional staff probably means assistants, office managers, etc. Engineers, software or otherwise, probably fall under exemption 2, trade secrets.
