It's interesting to see one of the basis of defense is promises made during offer stage.
Anecdotally speaking, and I am not remotely close to Hall's position or responsibilities (an engineer) and in the past, the hiring team has always led me to believe that the non-competes are a standard clause and are not likely to be enforced.
On a separate note, anybody knows if Google would help with legal defense of Hall or ignore this as a private matter?
