Great job, Awful contracting agency. Looking for suggestions

Hello all. This is my fist post. As the title says, I have a great job – no complaints about the end client. I love them and they love me. The only problem is that I am working through a contracting company. Recently the curtain has been pulled aside to reveal how tone deaf and uncaring this contracting agency is.

Hello all. This is my fist post. As the title says, I have a great job – no complaints about the end client. I love them and they love me. The only problem is that I am working through a contracting company.

Recently the curtain has been pulled aside to reveal how tone deaf and uncaring this contracting agency is. I have just completed my contract and the end client has requested that it be extended. I have not yet signed the extension, nor do I want to be stuck with this contracting agency for another 6 months.

I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what a good course of action might be at this point. The agency is trying to pressure me into signing. There was a no compete clause in the first contract (can't be employed by end client for a year after contract ends).

I will explain what happened in another post, but I'm just curious if anyone has any insights – is a non-compete clause legal after the contract has been fulfilled? Is there anything that the contracting company may have done to nullify that portion of it?

I appreciate any help regarding this matter.
