All I can say is that they'd better pray not to get jury trial.
And BTW, the boilerplate agreements have been invalidated many times on many grounds, including that they were too obscure, too restrictive, too many things.

For example, consulting companies typically have a non-compete clause in agreements with their subcontractors. It is meant to say that you will not steal business from the consulting company once you get a toe in the door with their client. But the courts have vacated these clauses many times after the joe schmoe signed them. Courts have ruled for example that the length of time the contractor was to stay out of that client was too long or the scope of work they could not do with the client was too broad or that the language effectively forced the contractors to work with only a handful of firms or that...

My point being that just because you signed an agreement with a firm, it doesn't mean that the agreement is valid. A good lawyer can find a mountain reasons why the agreed upon contract should not be upheld.
