Pros

They have tons of customers.

Cons

For a service company, Safety-Kleen was by far one of the most stressful and unethical companies doing business today. I watched management attack their employees if the numbers for the month were not above 150%. By far has to be one the worst environments for people to work and their leadership is highly authoritative and controlling. If you are a “Man Child” incapable of performing work without supervision, this is the company for you. They promote employees based off the good ole boy system. The leadership is completely incompetent and lack the proper training for title. You have been warned!
