- astrodust 13y agoContracts of that sort have been around for decades. The enforceability of them is somewhat questionable.
- mullingitover 13y agoAt least in California, I was under the impression that there was really no question--they're totally unenforceable unless you plan to pay your employee full wages for the entire duration that they're not allowed to work for the competition. But this wasn't about no-compete clauses, this was about the companies having an off-the-books agreement not to give unsolicited job offers to the competitors' employees.
