In this episode of Across the Bar, Laura and Peter unpack the ethics of high-profile gifts — including planes from foreign governments with questionable ties — and what that means for corporate policy. They break down Florida’s latest move on noncompetes, the growing use of NDAs (including which ones Laura can break), and how AI may be quietly shifting power away from employees.
They also get into what to do when your boss asks you to cross a line (No, Mr. Diddy, I will not buy three tons of baby oil), and why you should hire an intern this summer.
