I wasn’t allowed to tell anyone that my flatmate isn’t allowed to work for another company in their industry for twelve months after they leave their current job.
The company is owned by a foreign national and their hiring documents were full of weird, improper regulations, including any residents of the house not revealing any of the NDA that my flatmate signed, so while I didn’t sign anything, I was technically(impractically and I can’t imagine legally) forbidden, according to a clownish NDA, from discussing all sorts of things.
Yes, I read the whole thing just to see what else it said.
The company technically owes the signing employee at least 6 months of any revenue connected to any project connected to that employee’s position at the time of signing.
It’s supposed to be a salaried compensation point, but is vaguely worded incorrectly enough that it logically says any project connected to that position at all must direct a portion of its revenue to that employee, regardless of any circumstance.
Without any qualifications such as length of hire, time spent on the project, nominal involvement, a minimum of 6 revenue months of projects connected to that position must be directed toward the employee.

Any judge would laugh that out of court.

Sounds like your flatmate should invest in a lawyer. That company probably owes them a ton of money.
You didn’t sign shit and contracts, at least in North America, require mutual consideration to be at all enforceable.
You received nothing, you owe nothing.
LOL I would have definitely tested that one.
