My sense tells me that this kind of clause is not legal as it would create a "you work for us or you work for no one" relationship. So, even if you signed it, it wouldn't be enforceable because the terms are not compliant with the law.
I've had terms I didn't like before. I crossed them out, initialed the marks and sent them back. Never had a complaint (probably because the PMs didn't even examine them thoroughly).
Yeah, those are hardly likely to be upheld by an EU court for want of consideration. There must be a reciprocal benefit for the non-compete to survive court.
