Seagate Says Ex-Employee Can't Work For Competitor

Posted by simoniker on from the knows-too-much dept.

deweller writes "According to a story at MacCentral, Hard drive maker Seagate Technology LLC is seeking a court injunction to prevent a former employee, Pete Goglia, from going to work for Western Digital Corp. any time in the next 2 years, saying Goglia knows too much about Seagate's hard-drive reading and writing technology to work for a competitor."

    Being on the other side of the fence (an employer), I surely hope Seagate wins this.

    C'mon Darl- you don't have to post A/C.

    Lawyer: "I've looked at the agreement. You're pretty much fucked."
    You: "Is the agreement that bad?"
    Laywer: "The agreement? No. I'm talking about my fees."
