For the fifth year in a row, The Phelps Group has been recognized by The Los Angeles Business Journal as one of L.A.’s “Best Places to Work”! The firm ranked 12th among all mid-sized companies – 25 to 249 local workers – in Los Angeles. The announcement was made during The Los Angeles Business Journal’s annual awards luncheon, held at the JW Marriott on Aug. 9.

The poll, conducted by ModernThink, an independent research company, surveyed nearly 10,000 employees from hundreds of companies with headquarters or satellite offices in Los Angeles.  Key criteria in determining the top winners were culture of the organization, communication between employees, and growth opportunities available to workers.

The Phelps Group offers a range of progressive workplace benefits, including reimbursement for education classes and programs, ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan), telecommuting, pet-friendly work environment, green workplace program, full-feedback environment, competitive pay and health benefits, weekly educational seminars, and hosted lunch twice a week.
