Answer to Non Compete and Severance
Non Compete and severanceThe answer is yes it is probably legal. Since there is no legal obligation to pay severance in the absence of a contract, companies will usually require you to sign away legal rights (in a release) in consideration for the severance. I believe you employer would say they are giving severance in exchange for the non-compete. Any severance agreement can be negotiated, but the question is if the employer is willing to negotiate. Good luck.

Answer to Discrimination against males
Discrimination Against MalesThe male employees may have a claim if they can show specific instances of preferential treatment to females in similar positions to males. I would make a claims with HR and would suggest that other employees that have the same problem also make a complaint with HR.

Answer to is it legal for employers to not pay vacation pay after quitting
Payment of Vacation PayThe answer is "it depends." That is depends on whether your former employer had a written policy as to when vacation pay accrues. You would probably need to show a lawyer any written employment manual or describe any oral policies as to vacation pay that were relayed to you. If vacation pay is owed, you would then have a legal right to seek it as well as your attorneys fees and court costs incurred in recovering it.
