Ask yourself a few simple questions. Do You want to start a company in a similar field in the next 4 years? If you loose this job will you be looking in a similar or same field? Lastly it's quite possible this Non-Compete agreement could lock you out of finding a new job for the next 4 years. P.S. Don't listen to anyone who tells you they are unenforceable; that isn't the point. You have to hire a Lawyer to defend yourself and that costs money; and only if you win can you recoup that cost.
