Ignore advice on the internet and get a lawyer instead.
I encountered this clause at a previous job and i did not sign anything until we agreed on an additional document stating that that clause does not apply. I got the advice of a lawyer and vetted the additional document before signing. This clause was not even legal in my country
Contract law should be taken seriously. Get a lawyer and see if you can push back. If you're not in the US and they really want you it might work.
Also, f** companies that have such clauses.

- babycake 4y agoYea I mean it's good advice to get a lawyer, but imagine you had to do that for every job offer. You'd be spending so much upfront just to get a job. And they don't even reimburse you for the cost of the modified contract from the hired lawyer if you accept.
