Non Compete clause

My last company which is a early stage startup has 1 yr non compete clause in the employee agreement and which they asked us to get signed 4 months back on a very short notice to comply with investor requirements. We did it because of just compliance matter. Now I don't have good equation with them and have good offers from competitors.

Please suggest should I proceed with the offer or look for something else which doesn't fall into non compete. Please share your experiences.
