Would you be ok if it was total compensation (averaged over a reasonable period) and not salary?

  The problem there is people often leave one job for a job which might pay 2x, 5x, or even more. How about if you get another job offer, your original employer has to either "buy you out" of the new job offer, or you allowed to take it?

    This sounds great (as a worker). I could imagine it poses some risk of gaming the system (ie, have your friends startup fake hire you at 2/5x and use that to bypass noncompete or get a huge raise) - but then the company's out is to not enforce their noncompete (which is essentially what CA enforces) so I think it's a nice "velvet handcuffs" option for employers.

      “Easy, just commit fraud.” It’s like people forget that we have a functioning legal system where a human can see through the bs.

    That seems ripe for exploitation. Someone could setup a company that effectively does nothing but offer to hire people for exorbitant rates.

  Ny second paragraph talked about that. It would set my career back doing nothing.
