A few weeks? Try at least 12 months for quant finance.
The UK thankfully banned this crap.

I know it’s one giant asshole protecting itself from another giant asshole, but at least I know that usecase is justified.

I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to reply, but I really think that situation could be covered by an NDA instead of a non-compete.
Let the employers sue/arbitrate if they think the NDA is broken.
