Seems some corporate policies will have the change.

XOM Texas does not have non-compete, i did not sign one when I joined, my previous employer had it.
XOM employees are pretty much unemployable outside XOM.
If you've spent more than 10 years in xom your career is over, regardless of your non-compete.
Way back at the merger, Exxon offered 2 year salaries for Mobil employees to leave, but Mobil Execs were offered 3 year salary to leave, with a 1 year no compete clause as justification for that extra year of pay.
Those leaving execs could get employed immediately, just not with a direct competitor to EM for 1 year.
At this point in your “career”, all you have is a Non-Complete Agreement
Do we do non competes? Bit late as all the talent has gone
