Compare folders and sub-folders with PowerShell

I'd like to compare 2 folders including a number of sub-folders with PowerShell. So far I've used the following:

$Folder1 = Get-childitem "K:\Program Files\"
$Folder2 = Get-childitem "K:\Program Files2\"
Compare-Object $Folder1 $Folder2 -Property Name, Length

However this doesn't look into all the sub-folders Could you please help and advise what the best way would be here?

Tested it with -Recurse and it works

$folderA=Get-ChildItem "C:\Test" -Recurse
$folderB=Get-ChildItem "C:\Test - Kopie" -Recurse

Compare-Object -ReferenceObject $folderA -DifferenceObject $folderB -Property Name,Length
