Federal judge derails FTC’s sweeping ban on non-compete agreements

How are we feeling about this?

In the case of physicians, non-competes are purely a way to trap docs in jobs and encourages employers to use the stick, rather than the carrot, to continue to retain our services. In many instances it’s worse for patients too. The idea that we would somehow give away our employer’s “trade secrets” or other specialized information to erode their competitive advantage is a farce. We bring the trade secrets / specialized information to THEM.

The more interesting question is how do we all guess the right leaning supreme court will vote on it

Wait, no ImPlicAtIoNs for pAiN thread from drusso??

Anyway the FTC is essentially neutered by the Chevron doctrine being overturned, noncompetes are here to stay
