Reply to comment by [deleted] in JPMorgan Chase requires tech workers give 6 months notice before quitting by iammrfamous07

My friends who've gotten this have called it non-compete. Definitely not severance, you can take another job once you've got severance. My friends were getting paid to not work for a few months until their current knowledge of the business was not current anymore.

Garden leave is a paid non-compete. There's no legal contract called "Garden Leave" and the non-compete wouldn't be enforceable in most states without pay.
