Amazon is suing a former AWS sales exec in the US after he suddenly jumped ship to rival Google Cloud, contrary to the non-compete clause in his contract.

Philip Moyer, who lives in Pennsylvania, joined Amazon Web Services in 2017, and signed, in the tech giant's home state of Washington, an agreement to not work for a competitor for at least 18 months after leaving the biz. In May this year, though, Moyer told his bosses he was quitting for a sales gig at AWS's arch-rival Google Cloud Platform.
