National waste recovery and environmental services operator with 120+ branches
Crystal Clean operates a distributed network of waste recovery, treatment, and disposal facilities across the continental U.S., anchored by an oil re-refinery and hazardous waste handling infrastructure. The hiring profile is heavily ops and sales weighted (73 and 57 roles open, respectively), with junior-level dominance and minimal engineering staff—a footprint typical of asset-heavy, field-service operations where execution and customer acquisition outpace software investment. Active projects center on waste-stream sampling, permitting, and facility optimization, while pain points cluster around sales quota attainment and fleet efficiency, signaling a mature but sales-constrained business.
Crystal Clean is a national environmental services company founded in 1999, headquartered in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, with 1,001–5,000 employees. The company operates more than 120 service branches, industrial services facilities, and waste recovery centers serving the continental United States. Its core assets include an oil re-refinery, multiple wastewater treatment and non-hazardous waste processing facilities, several antifreeze recovery centers, and a hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facility.
