If you think that the court wars currently taking place between Apple and Google and others have arisen recently due to the conflict in the world of operating systems, copying of each company to other products and the violation of its patents, this information is incorrect. War is old and complex, and it is not limited to systems but even employees. There are secret agreements and court wars over employees.
Confidential non-employment agreements
It seems that Apple and Google will be brought before the courts and this time the two will be in the dock! As for the charge, it is a confidential agreement between them stipulating that they will not employ each other's employees (Do-Not-Hire), and thus they will face many charges such as violating the antitrust law. According to news leaked to newspapers, Google, Apple and dozens of other tech giants have concluded illegal and confidential agreements between them that stipulate not to hire or hire any of their current or former employees without the mother company's knowledge, whatever the reasons. This revealed the leaked emails that date back to 2005 between Eric Schmidt - at that time he was the CEO of Google - as well as “Sergey Brin,” the founder of the company, and other leaders. In one of them, “Sergey” spoke about “Steve Jobs” contact with him and that he was furiously angry at his company's attempts to appoint Employees working on the Safari browser. Sergey said that "Jobs" is sure that they are working on a browser - which Chrome had not appeared - and that his company - Google - is seeking to steal and threaten Apple employees and other details.
Watch the email
But the strange thing is that after only two days, "Sergey Brin" sent another email in which he mentioned that he had received another call from "Steve Jobs", but it is noticed in this email that Sergey ordered his employees not to appoint employees from Apple. Was Sergey not aware of the agreement that Eric Schmidt, who was then a member of the board of directors of Apple and also CEO of Google, might have concluded, and after Jobs' first call, he knew about it?
See the second email
In the case papers, an email also appeared days after this incident, but this time it was issued to Apple's hiring managers and explicitly mentions adding Google to the list of companies that do not hire any of their employees. Hey, "List" This means that there are other agreements, not only with Google !!!.
See Apple's email to the recruitment section
Away from Apple this time, the executive director of "ebay" contacted "Eric Schmith" and told him that Google's human resources department had attempted to include a senior manager at "ebay" and offered him huge sums of money. And again the same thing that happened with Apple, where "Eric" addressed his colleagues at Google, but was he just talking? He even fired the employee who had a meeting with the ebay manager. This means that he committed a major offense to get fired, and "Eric" hinted in his email that they should not harm companies such as Microsoft, Yahoo and eBay. Are these companies also within the confidentiality agreements ?!
Eric's dismissal email
Of course, someone might say that it is unreasonable and these emails are fake. Well, let's look at the appointment agreement at Google, which includes the names of giant companies such as Microsoft, Oracle, Apple, IBM, Intel, and others, and calls for restricting the appointment of employees from them or even communications.
These emails go back to 2005, so does anyone mention that Google has appointed any senior employees of any of the previous companies during the last 10 years? !!
BlackBerry suing an employee who wanted to move to Apple
We go back to the present time, where the BlackBerry company announced that it will file a lawsuit against a former manager named "Sebastian Marnio" to prevent him from working for Apple. The story of this employee goes back to last September, when he announced his desire to move to Apple. Here, BlackBerry offered to the employee to occupy the vice president of the company for systems, and he agreed and signed a contract in December that he must inform BlackBerry two months before leaving it, meaning he will not leave before “February”, However, it seems that he did not read the papers well or hurried as he also signed that he had been promoted to “EVP” for developing systems on the condition that he notify the company 6 months in advance. And now "Sebastian" wanted to leave BlackBerry, but hey, the company declared war on him and sue him to complete the agreement and continue until June. Whether the BlackBerry position was legal or deceived the employee, the bottom line is that companies will prevent their employees from moving to the competitor in any way and in any form.

An important question: What if one of these companies violates the agreement and strikes a wall with it, and negotiates with the employees of other companies and lures them with money and positions to organize it ..
What action will be taken against this company for breaching the agreement? They know their agreement is illegal
Do you think that companies have the right to conclude secret agreements between them to prevent employees from moving between them to protect their secrets, or do you see it as a violation of the employee's freedom of work?
If it was in an agreement between the two companies, this would be a very normal thing
Whereas, if the employee wants to work for another company, the other company will ignore his request. The employee is estimated to apply to a second company.
Either if there are no agreements, then this is not the employee's right that he works an interview with the competing company, and he is entitled to file a lawsuit if he was harassed by the previous company.
Everyone was upset at how large companies such as Apple prevent their employees from moving to a company that is considered an enemy to them, such as Google, or vice versa
Most of the comments were about livelihood cuts and employee freedom
No one has spoken about the integrated system that most of the residents of the Gulf countries live through from the sponsor’s monopoly on his employees and preventing them from changing their work or expelling them outside the country !! ???
Violation of employee freedom
If it was legal and correct, it would not have been done in secrecy
As far as I know, this law exists in small international and European companies, so how can it not be found in such large companies
The same thing between airlines monopolizes us and prevents us from moving before the passage of a year without work or paying a large fine written in the employment contract
This is capitalism
The issue of the employee’s monopoly is an old issue, and it is a negative issue, and we mention (Senmar Penalty)
But the biggest fear is that these companies occupy and control our minds and our thoughts and everyone is preoccupied with smart devices. They make us like dolls to move us as they want. I am not ruling that out in the near future as long as there is an improvement in technology. Perhaps this was part of their plan to rob us of our lives and distance us from our religion. ...; ?? !! So be careful
My brothers, to protect companies and their innovations, they pump millions of dollars. Pardon me for going off topic a little. Our brothers in the Kingdom prevent the worker from moving to another job, even if the sponsor is severely unjust to him.
It was acquitted as a violation of employees
And at the same time positive for companies!
Dear brothers, I have a problem with the personal point of contact not appearing, knowing that I made a restore for the device and never came back ... iPhone Islam experts helped me with a solution, and thank you ... Go to iPhone XNUMX.
There must be personal, intellectual and practical freedom
The same agreement, but in another way, prohibits the employees of the Bin Laden Company who hold sensitive positions or those with special experience in the Bin Laden Company, especially foreigners who are brought in from abroad, not to work with any other party or to return to Saudi Arabia after their resignation.
I see that it is a violation of employee freedom
An employee who trains, learns and benefits from the company, develops his skills and gains experience in two dimensions. He goes to serve a second company as well as without an account or a sure watchman who will prevent him by force
Big companies, especially in technology, have secrets that you think are grocery or restaurant hahaha
My dear brother .. It does not mean that a person who worked in a particular company will become a slave to it and he will not be able to work in another place ..
As for the training issue, companies do it for their own benefit, not for the employee’s benefit. The employee gains experience from his work, which has benefited the company and generated income for it.
Then there are documents that people sign when they leave their companies and it is called a “non-disclosure agreement” and states that this person will not disclose any information that he knows about his old company.
Very strange, these are livelihood agreements
As for the conventions that are called monopoly or invention, it is
For something with me, I have a monopoly on human beings or livelihood
Weird them
I think this is a violation of the employees' freedom. Even if the employee gives information to the other company, there are patents that protect companies to make their information monopolized by them.
This is true. Most employment contracts contain clauses that prohibit employees from moving to a competing company until one or two years after leaving the company, to ensure that confidential information or technology is not transferred to competition.
By the way, I am surprised that the iPhone Islam application does not give the user a way to enlarge the images attached to the article. For example, I cannot read the images of the emails attached to this article because the font is very small and the browser does not allow enlarging the images. The alternative method is to browse the article using Safari, but what is the benefit of using the iPhone Islam application? I asked this question before, but the blog administrator did not bother to answer.
My dear brother Maher ...
For the iPhone application, Islam is important, which is that the application sends notifications and this is very important because it makes it easier for me to know the latest news and for the blog manager, who has not responded to you, he is very busy, do not forget that he writes articles daily, programs and updates programs, and as the site has a high reputation, a lot of messages are sent to him. Every day, adding the zoom feature is difficult because it opens and shows the site, and just as opening the Safari browser is very easy, all you have to do is click on the arrow mark at the bottom and click on “Open in Safari” and this is easy, then continue to click on the image and you know the rest
I would like to thank the blogger for her wonderful effort
I am a frequent follower of iPhone Islam and one of the staunch defenders of the team, but unfortunately there are some trivial things that the iPhone Islam team must address to enable the application to rise to the professionalism expected of them:
@ Zoom in on the images in articles and I am not convinced that it is a difficult feature to implement. Are we talking about amateur or professional programmers?
@ The app does not remember my information and I have to enter it every time
@ The field for the e-mail is designed to enter information from right to left, although the e-mail is always in Latin letters and must be entered from left to right
@ The biggest negative is that the application does not put articles in the cache so that we can read them when there is no Internet and the application downloads the article again every time you open it, even if you just open it and close it and this is very annoying, especially when the Internet connection is slow
I challenge the iPhone Islam team to fix these malfunctions with the app and upgrade the app to what it should be.
Wait for my dear brother, the next update soon, God willing, and thank you very much for your attention
I also add that when I read in the landscape mode, the images do not enlarge and become suitable for the horizontal screen position, but rather remain at the size of the normal vertical position, which is annoying as well !!
Did you understand why the following job applications I submitted to all companies. Apparently, every company you thought of I was an employee of the other was rejected
This is an agreement that aims to profit the company at the expense of individual competencies, and it is good that this is illegal in America
From my point of view, what is happening is the right of these companies to protect their secrets, but they must also know what is the reason that made this employee move to a competing company and give him what he wants and needs so that he does not think about going to another company, that is, the employee must be given what he wants and what makes him Comfortable in his company.
Thank you
Moving from work to another job is a legitimate right for anyone, but the transfer of corporate secrets is not correct, so companies must put in place the law of secrecy and morals, and the workers sign it, and it must be studied in schools and universities
The US monopoly even on humans
What was mentioned in the article is a simple thing
Do not forget the Arab doctors, engineers and inventors who
She graduated from America, offered her nationalities, and refused her
What happened to them?
They were killed before they left America, and there are so many accidents
The staff want everything for them and they see that they have trained you and made you
Creative that you belong to them
Hi
This policy, my Lord, is present with us in Saudi Arabia among the employees of the telecom companies STC and Mobily, with the blessing of the state, unfortunately, represented by the Communications Commission
And Allah is upon what you say is a martyr
I expect there will be very big problems between companies in the future
