We believe that transparency, great communication and a good work/life balance drives our amazing culture, but it’s our people, like you, that make Lytx a great place to work and helps drive our innovation and mission of to help keep roadways safe. Offering competitive salaries to our employees is also very important to our company. In fact, each year we do a compensation study to ensure that are salaries are competitive for our respective industry.

Great customers, innovative technology, new leadership is focused on right things. Love the new DRIVE company values.

Cons

A con for some (but pro for most): Competitive industry means lots of change. You need to like working hard and moving fast.

Pros

Healthcare benefits are great. There are a lot of passionate, hard-working people across the company.

Cons

Great people are leaving, signs of a business in decline. Direction of the company and outlook for the future is bleak. Years spent sitting on the sidelines collecting money and patting ourselves on the back has resulted in the current market positioning and has allowed our competitors to make a big run at our expense. It might be too late to recover, especially if we continue to increase and promote middle management from departments with history of negligence and apathy for the customer experience. There’s a business to run, but without customers there won’t be any business…
