Yes, I can confirm it is a 1-year no-compete requirement. The only interpreters who are exempt are at the Washington DC center, because technically we are Gallaudet Interpreting Service (GIS) employees and not Sorenson employees. Sorenson doesn't have any other partner arrangements though, so only GIS interpreters are exempt from the 1-year rule.
As for pay, well, I will just say that I feel I am being fairly compensated for my CI/CT and experience level.
