Oh boo boo, this is how every other industry works. You don't think a company takes a risk by hiring a new engineer and then letting them learn for years only to have them jump ship for a hire paying position?
This is the norm in other fields. If you want people to stay then compensate them for it. Otherwise be ready to have people constantly leave.

As a physician owner of a medical practice non competes are essential. I spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to help establish a new doc in their practice. Guaranteed salary, with all that risk borne by me. If non competes are dissolved then the physician that I have supported for years to build their patient base will simply go out and start their own practice and take their patients with them. Well, I will not take that financial risk and new physicians will take be on their own.
