Other than the crazy horoscope stuff, a job wanting you to sign an NDA and a Non-Compete likely know they are a shitty place to work and won't to keep you there so you can't go somewhere else and also not able to tell anyone how shitty it is. They probably already know Non-Competes in California have been unenforceable for a long time but they don't want you to know that.

Didn't the Feds just recently make non competes unenforceable?

[–] [email protected] 30 points 6 months ago

Yes but in California they have been unenforceable for almost everyone for many years.

I think not just that, they mandate employers to tell you they are.

This might be, but definitely should be, illegal.
