A few years ago, Jeanne* left her company, active in human resources, for a job offer that she liked. Yes, but: the company that contacted her was none other than a big rival of hers. At this announcement, her employer becomes very angry: Jeanne must leave the premises immediately. Later, he even sued her: “I knew that this could happen because of the non-competition clause in my contract, but at the same time it seemed inapplicable to me: it almost prohibited me from carrying out my job. and my own skills elsewhere,” says Jeanne. A financial arrangement that suits both parties is ultimately found, and the new employer, as promised, covers the costs incurred.
Arriving in his new company was not easy either: “I felt guilt for the problems caused and a certain pressure to prove my worth.”
