  12. Do not work for this company. They do not give you what you need to succeed. They do not provide proper clothing or attire. I never received a scull cap a jacket I got one shirt and two pair of pants and my shirt had a hole in it. They also …

  13. First got hired, CJ was straight forward and nice. Staff is rude/unprofessional, especially when you call for information(etc). No communication skills/customer service skills. Dispatchers are very unorganized, disrespectful, lack …

  14. Their “training” must not include drivers training, and also must not include teaching them not to flip off other drivers when they clearly are in the wrong. I was almost run off the road because one of their “guards” changed lanes almost …

  15. Very slick and will cheat you when it’s payday. Very much the worst security company in Memphis TN. They will work you for hours with low pay and no lunch break. Do not apply I repeat do not apply. The vehicles stink and are filthy. The …

  16. Applied to Phelps this morning and even though I supposed to have had an appointment to talk to someone nobody in the entire office knew anything about it. They want to pay you bird feed rates. And they want you wear a tie. If they want the …

  17. Lol. Well first they were pushing for me to become unarmed until my armed license came in. They start armed guards out 25 cents lower than the already low starting pay for being armed. No benefits. Then they’ll try to make you go all around …

  18. I have been an employee of Phelps Security Inc. since June 2012, in that time I have worked and trained many posts for Phelps and have seen many employees come and go. In my time with Phelps there have been ups and downs like any company …

  19. I currently work for Phelps I really enjoy working for this company the only complaint I have is I wish the don dhe scheduling manager will stop pulling me from post for no reason and without contacting me first. Other than that I have never had a issue with pay.

  20. I work for Phelps Security and I loved my time there as an employee. I appreciate the opportunity given to me by Human Resources and I will forever be grateful for my time worked. Anytime a open shift became available they always called me and asked if I wanted to pick up extra shifts

  21. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to give Phelps Security no stars so I gave them 1 which is more than they deserve. I worked for this company for ONE day and called it quits. Here’s why: …

  22. Phelps is a family owned security company. They are very nice people. Their pay scale is very, very low and you would not be able to survive on your net pay.

  23. Phelps is not the place to work at very unprofessional security company I work 7 months straight no days off never took off I’ve seen people walk off posts and quit but still have there positions as soon as I take off and do a call in …

  24. A friend told me he was called 4 times for jobs, after 3 interviews they told him they have to get approval. Pay is low and after each interview he never heard from them. They have all the right answers to make their company look better.

  25. Phelps is a very bad company to work for poor in training, unprofessional, and hold checks back for 5-7 weeks and don’t tell you nothing. Oh and fires you if your sick they want workers that can stay 24/7 every day all day shift by shift. This job is a piece of mind. Worse first job I’ve ever had to start with.

  26. This is a very unprofessional company, so I had surgery about a month ago and I contacted Phelps and told them I would be out of work for about a week due to my surgery I gave them doctors notes and everything showing them the proof. A …

  29. I think it’s a great company, I currently work here. I think the pay can be a little better but all the overtime that is available makes up for the pay. I think the dispatchers are very understanding of the officers needs. As long as you do your job you shouldn’t have a problem.

  30. If I could give this company 0 stars I would. I wish I would have came to the reviews before I took the job would have saved myself a lot of trouble and time. Every negative comment about this place is true. They do not care about their …

  31. In the process of taking them to small claims court for breach of contract I really don’t want to but I can’t speak with anyone in the office but the lady Nicole and she is either on another call or not in the office everytime I call, I …

  32. I saw a young lady in the store coming from an interview with you all. She didn’t have a good story so I went to read your reviews. I’m so shock at the companies replies. 😂😂😂 Actually thats a Violation of their privacy telling the world why …

  34. I had an interview today (06/01) at 10am for a dispatcher position. I arrived at 9:30am, filled out the paper application, turned it in to the receptionist at approximately 9:55am. The receptionist informed me she would let him know I was …

  36. This is the worst company anyone can work for. You’d literally be wasting your time working at this company because they don’t pay enough to live off of. They also threaten to and actually change pay rates to $5.00-7.25 if you leave before …

  37. They will make you sign a paper saying you can’t get your last check without a 2 weeks notice. Then they will clear your schedule and try to call you the day of your shift to give you a different shift. If you do not accept it they will not …

  38. This is by far the worst security company in the city of Memphis. They pay the lowest wages, they’re completely behind in means of technology, and by it being a family owned business they’re extremely biased about who they employ and …
