A technology company based in Texas has filed a lawsuit against a man from Massachusetts, alleging that he simultaneously worked for a direct competitor while employed by the Texas firm. The man, hired last year as a remote account executive, is accused of concealing his continued employment with his previous company. The lawsuit claims this arrangement constitutes a breach of contract and a violation of the company’s policies.
Details of the alleged dual employment have not been released. The Texas-based company is seeking damages, though the specific amount has not been disclosed. The case highlights the complex legal challenges that can arise from remote work, particularly when employees have access to sensitive information or are in competition with their employers. Further developments in the case will likely shed light on the evidence presented and the company’s claims regarding the extent of the alleged conflict of interest. The court documents are not yet available for public view. The company is keeping a tight lid on specifics.
