On April 2, 2007, I started with a new company.
Prior to my employment, I had to sign a non compete agreement that stated that I would not work for a customer, supplier or competitor for a period of one year after departure from my employer.
On October 31st, I was served with a separation notice that stated I did not meet the company performance expectations.
I can testify that this action was unfair and unjust based on the fact that there were no performance objectives or performance reviews conducted during my tenure.
My question is, in the state of Georgia, can I legally pursue employment opportunities with other companies that conduct some form of business with my previous employer?
Sincerely,
Mark Tinney
