A control module for a refrigeration system includes a startup mode control module that receives an off time of a compressor and an ambient temperature, determines whether the off time and the ambient temperature indicate that the compressor is in a flooded condition, and selects, based on the determination, between a normal startup mode and a flooded startup mode. A compressor control module transitions from the flooded startup mode to the normal startup mode after a predetermined period associated with operating in the flooded startup mode and operates the compressor at a first speed in the normal startup mode and operates the compressor at a second speed less than the first speed in the flooded startup mode.
