Requested changes to add company's founding story and current company culture
[edit]This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
- Founder Story
Garrett Langley is a technology entrepreneur who has spent the last decade of his career leading Flock Safety.
Flock Safety was founded following Garrett's own experience with crime in his neighborhood. Upon approaching law enforcement to provide evidence and secure justice, he learned how many existing neighborhood security solutions were not effective in providing actionable evidence that could be used to solve crime.
As an electrical engineer and serial technology entrepreneur, Garrett and co-founders Matt Feury and Paige Todd founded Flock Safety in 2017.
Flock Safety’s mission follows from Garrett’s experience growing successful companies that reimagined traditional sectors: Clutch, a monthly car subscription service that allowed consumers to swap their vehicle for any occasion, and Experience, a mobile-first fan experience platform that allowed users to upgrade live events. Overseeing the engineering, design, product, data science, and customer support groups at Experience, Garrett led the sale of the company to Cox Enterprises for $200 million in 2014.
Since founding Flock, Langley has received several notable recognitions, including being an EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® 2021 Southeast Finalist and an Atlanta Business Chronicle 2021 40 Under 40 honoree.
Company Culture
Flock Safety employs 850+ people across 44 states. The company is headquartered in Atlanta, GA, but offers a remote-first work experience. Its core company values include embracing change to grow, optimism with a plan, doing the work, and protecting the whole community.
Notable recognitions include being named on Forbes’ 2024 list of America’s Best Startup Employers and being named one of Built In’s Best Places to Work 2024.

Watch for vandalism/CoI edits
[edit]I am troubled by the recent edits to this page made by user CaptnFalcon, whose name seems to be a reference to Flock's ALPR, and whose only edits to date have been made on this page. These edits seemed to give the article a bias favoring the company, and for all of those reasons, I believe Ocaasi was correct in surmising that this user has a conflict of interest with the subject.
For this reason, I would encourage moderators to monitor this page for suspicious edits. 42-BRT (talk) 01:03, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
