What incentive is there for the employee to sign a non-compete today that has $0/year compensation for the non-compete duration?
However, another comment in this thread suggests that the law in question requires the compensation be the same as that of the job itself, which avoids this issue.

If it's the only way to get a job, that's the incentive. If the whole industry does it, or at least the vast majority, then workers don't have an actual choice.
- JoshTriplett 3y agoThat was the point of my comment. The comment I was replying to asked " What incentive would there be for the employee to sign such an incredibly one sided contract when they could literally go to any other job?", and my answer was to equate it to the incentive they have for signing existing even-more-one-sided non-competes.
