Los Angeles MEPS, El Segundo CA

Most people here are nice, you'll notice the only people who are rude to you are the ones that don't wear a uniform. Everyone who was serving was kind but the civilian employees where incredibly rude and disrespectful. Especially the guy who looked like a chubby conner McGregor from the dollar tree. He clearly has ego and anger problems and he would greatly benefit from some therapy. Also the doctors are ridiculous I came in with a group of 30 guys and maybe only 4 or 5 where qualified and sworn in. THEY WANT YOU TO FAIL!

Excellent time at MEPS, which to most seems to be the opposite. Professional staff for both enlisted and civilian. The best advice given is as others have reviewed, be patient, stay alert, and be respectful. Treat it like you do job interviews. Good Luck!

I worked at this location for about 7 months. During this time I had the opportunity to work with some of the most AMAZING, KIND, COMPASSIONATE, HARD WORKING, CARING, ETHICAL, SUPPORTIVE, RESPECTFUL human beings I will ever meet in my life! They made me believe in humanity again! I can't wait to visit them soon!

The workers that processed my medical information were very rude and unprofessional. I understand that they deal with younger individuals who have attitudes but there is a time and place to act accordingly. The women were especially disrespectful to me which I found surprising. They constantly taunted me and treated me like a child. I cooperated with them and I felt that they abused their power and ranks to scare me. I guess all that power has gone and made them have big heads. They need to have mandatory anger management classes and relearn that the real world is different than the military world. I understand that they need to act stern and firm but they are being bully’s. They are taking their anger out on people who want to join the military. Unfortunately they make the military look bad.

Hopefully MEPS will read my comment and figure out a way to keep their workers in line.

Patience only gets you so far. I had to sit around for 12 hours going through medical only for my enlistment to be held over just because it was past 3 PM:) The staff are nice though.
Do NOT go to MEPS if you are having second thoughts about joining the military. They will try their hardest to break you down just to convince you to join, and it will be difficult getting out. My dad was the whole reason I was in here in the first place, and they basically threatened to put him on call when I said I no longer wanted to be in the Navy. Wow, the people at MEPS sure aren't manipulative!
Also turkey >>> ham. The lunch is depressing.

Best meps I’ve ever been to. I was treated with nothing but respect and treated as an adult. The other reviews are false about the staff. Staff was super kind and couldn’t of asked for more!

Everyone is super helpful but they can get agitated because little kids talk too much or try to talk back. Just be understanding because it’s not an easy job dealing with so many dumb kids but they do an excellent effort to get everyone in and out. I had an issue and everyone that worked there worked together to get me in and out. I really appreciated all the employees at this place and made me feel like I mattered.

Staff is rude. They kept getting on us for their own irresponsibility with time management. One of the male doctors kept tryna peep at the girls during a tape measuring where we had to strip clothes. There was also a female nurse/doctor not sure but she was talking down on everyone for every little thin as if we were children. Majority in my group was full adults so it was just straight bs.

I had a good experience at this location. I’m glad I passed my asvab.:) hotel dinner and breakfast were good. The second day was a long day but not bad.

You want a smooth and quick process? Don’t come here. Find another recruiter closer to a different MEPS than here.
