They unfortunately have an anti-pattern recourse as well: non-compete agreements. I was presented one today after a few months on the job and it is a doozy. Being in Texas, I am sure the courts will look much more kindly upon its shackles than California has so far. Such is the price of "living free" :).
- hga 12y agoSide note which doesn't affect your point: without "consideration", such as more money, or when you start a job, the job itself, a non-compete is worthless, it's a contract where each side has to gain something. And "keeping your job" isn't one of those. As for California vs. Texas, well, you do get some serious considerations by making a move in either direction. Greater note: I've been convinced for some time that the non-enforcablility of non-competes is "Silicon Valley's" unique advantage. Given the steadily increasing difficulty of doing business in the state, it's almost certainly been critical in keeping that Golden Goose alive and somewhat healthy.
