There are reasonable limits for no competes. The industry/expertise clause is generally not enforceable because you can't tell someone that they can no longer use their developed skill set. Generally the enforceable part would be in taking and using IP to a competitor... ...so just be careful that you tread carefully there. I've seen a lot of these and no judge has ever ruled that someone had to "change careers" as a result of leaving a company which yours basically says.
