all those people are VP level and above. If you’re a VP you can afford the lawyer. Hell even if you’re an unknown drone (maybe with the exception of fresh out of college people) you can probably afford the lawyer.

the comment i was answering to was about a job were they added the NCA after the person was employed there for 20 years!!! as far as your comment goes: nope. Amazon cannot afford a legal battle for each and every one of their employees.
