Hi,
I have a question regarding non compete agreements. I have signed a non compete agreement with my current employer based out of Texas. I have been working as a contractor to an implementation partner (IP) based out of Nebraska. The IP and my current employer have an agreement where the IP can hire me full time after 6 months into the contract. I have been offered a full time remote position (OH) with the IP as I completed 6 months. My employer says I am legally not allowed to accept the position as I have signed the non compete.
My question is, am I really violating this non compete agreement and what are the legal implications if I accept the job?
