Pros
Decent pay and interesting software.
Cons
Terrible leadership. No sense of direction as a company. Not a serious player in the public safety space and no real understanding of the industry they’re trying to compete in. CEO is completely clueless.

Pros
I did work with a great and talented team during my time at Rekor. I made some friends and found people I'd love to work with again in the future.
Cons
Upper management, the board, and the top decision makers are indifferent to employees (minus the few great people who are in this category that do work there). In February 2026, they enacted a policy that no employees would receive severance at all moving forward and a few months later I was laid off after over half a decade with the company. Tons of turnover and inability to keep top performers/talent. I wanted to warn people as it isn't very clear from the outside that all of this is going on.
