I live and hire people in Colorado, and a bunch of recruiters contact me about remote roles. Most companies that fear transparency just advertise very broad ranges, e.g. $100-200k. I'm sure some companies refuse Colorado employees, but nobody I've talked to seems concerned.

The market for engineers in Colorado is very hot. What we're seeing is the smaller Boulder/Denver startup scene from the past decade transforming into a larger and more stable market as companies like Ibotta, Guild Education, SendGrid, etc. are hiring a ton of engineers. And you still have lots of smaller startups competing for talent.

This is what I've seen basically. Some companies meet the requirements of the law technically by putting a HUGE range like "75,000USD - 310,000USD". I would argue this is disingenuous by employers, but that is a problem with the law as written based on my understanding.
