Ask HN: Will invalidation of non-compete increase attrition?

2 points by somegent ↗ HN
With the new FTC ruling invalidating non-compete clauses, do you think that there will be more company hopping? It seemed to me that there was less of the '18-24 months, then move' culture in WA and TX than in CA.

I don’t think so. It could be more governed by the opportunities. There is not as much startup and vc activity in Wa compared to CA.

Probably not? NCs in WA were just "don't update LinkedIn". Plenty of 18-24 month hopping happening in the tech world (even non-tech focused companies) in WA.
