They could fight it in court. They might not have a super strong case and might not win, but by fighting it they add additional costs for the corpos and between that and bad publicity it might be enough to convince them that letting them go is the better option despite the contract.
- aardvarkr 4y agoThe legal analysts cited in the article make the claim that no reasonable judge would uphold the contract, and they cite several such lawsuits. It’s likely unenforceable. Most workers would just cave immediately though. Deploying corporate lawyers costs the company very little. Hitting a lawyer as individual is prohibitively expensive and time consuming and emotionally taxing affair so very few people ever fight it.
