I’m confused. Clients of your company? Are you proving legal services? In many jurisdictions non competes for attorneys are unenforceable, but only with respect to the practice of law. Or are you saying you can go take the company’s clients and offer them the services the company is offering? In that case, a non compete could be enforceable.
No I have other clients I can take to start my pen practice, nor do I have a non compete. They’re not enforceable in my Jx for lawyers.

Welcome to many startups in the Valley. Question of whether you can live with the lies, shape the integrity of the company, and love with the outcome. If you can't deal w the outcomes, run away.
I left my first in-house job as a GC for a client for similar reasons - they weren’t super ethical but CEO was also pretty dumb and didn’t like it when i spotted issues. I would try to ride it out for a year unless you’re concerned about something blowing up before then.
The real issue is that clients everywhere are worse than you think, you are just insulated from it at a firm. If it’s mostly a question of if they want to be more aggressive with risk than you’d like, but they are otherwise sophisticated and listen to your advice on how to manage risk, that’s the best you’ll get.
This is straight from the MPRE. Withdraw as counsel and set up a new practice. Clients don’t listen to your advice . The model rules prevent restricting someone’s access to practice law.
