Would you want to work for a company that goes out of its way to avoid states with worker-friendly laws like the Colorado's wage disclosure? It seems a pretty clear sign that they will try to screw you over. There are plenty of companies that you can work for, if you're just trying to get a salary.

But on the flip side, have you visited Colorado recently? Large parts of the state are now what I would describe as a "suburban hellscape." There are other states with nature and fewer people.
