INPHX is on a distinguished road
Default Car Business in Denver or surrounding areas.

My husband and I currently live in Phx. We too are looking to possiable relocated to Denver. He currently makes a min of 100,000 per year in the car business. Does anyone know if that is achievable in Col. Does anyone know, anyone in the business and or a reputable dealership to possibly work or apply for. Arizona is a right to work state, so at anytime you are a expendable employee, meaning absolutely no job security at all. Your pay can be cut in a moments notice without any rights to you as the employee. If you don't like it you can leave. In Arizona you are considered a "at will employee" at all times. It really doesn't matter what profession you are in. Although some companies with headquarters in other states do not practice this type of business. Does Colorado have that same type of feel?

I think you are thinking of at-will employment. Right to work refers to whether you have to join a union if one is present. In right to work states you don't have to join a union if one is present. In forced union states you have to join unions if they are present. I really doubt there is a car salesman union for you to join in CO.

All states have at-will employment which means the employer or employee may terminate employment at any time. There are a few exceptions to this and Colorado actually has less protections then Arizona. Arizona has adopted the covenant of good faith and fair dealing exception, while Colorado has not. Basically this means in Arizona employer personnel decisions that are made in bad faith or motivated by malice are prohibited while in Colorado they are not.

I don't work in the car sales bus so I can't tell you what the culture is like in CO but I never felt afraid of losing my job in other industries. I would say though, do your job and you won't have much to worry about.

I know folks at Phil Long (dealerships in SW Denver & CO Springs) and at Auto Nation's John Elway dealerships, both have good reputations. Sometimes it gets slow, just like any sales job.
