I am working (H1) as a contractor at a client thru a sub-consultant. My employer does not deal with or interact with the client in any possible manner. Everything (billing, contract renewal, establishment and termination of contract..etc) is thru the sub-consulting company ONLY.
The sub-consulting company has no problem in my getting employed with the client. But my employer is saying that since I have a non-compete agreement with him, I cannot
join the client.
Now what confuses me is that the client is not actually a 'client' of my employer, its the sub-consultant who is the client of my employer. And, the 'client' is a client of the sub-consultant and not my employer (correct me if I am wrong).
Now as per my understanding, the non-compete would come into effect only if I join the sub-consultant. @#%$t it ? Or would it hold true even if I join this client ?
Any input will be highly appreciated.
Thanks much.
