I would like to know if I signed a non-compete agreement with my company and they change my pay structure with out my consent is the non-compete voided?

Re: Non-compete contract

It depends on the language of your contract. If they have breached the agreement by changing your pay structure, and that breach is an event that terminates the contract, then yes the non-compete clause is no longer effective. However, if the contract allows for breach without termination, or if the non-compete survives the termination of the contract, then it is still effective. You'll need to carefully read your contract before taking any action.
