It will bar you from going to a competitor for a period of time. Legally, in states where they are considered "right to work" states, then you have a tough case, however, when you have trade secrets and proprietary information, then you have a good case. From the article it looks like Informix has a good case. Especially in light of the GM/Volkswagen decision. (Or was it Ford?)
