I recently received a job offer after a long search, which I was thrilled about. However, as I reviewed the offer letter, I noticed a non-compete clause included, and it raised some concerns for me. I'm not in a sales role, so I was puzzled as to why I would be subject to such a restriction. The clause states that for 12 months, I cannot engage in any competitive activities with the company or its affiliates in any state where they operate. This seems overly broad and potentially covers the entire industry I'm in. I'm unsure if this is a standard practice or if I should reconsider signing the offer. I'm seeking advice on whether non-compete clauses like this are common and if they can be enforced.
