I was a for Phase 1 Driver Instructor for C.R.England. These guys represent some of the better students C. R. England takes in. I've had guys that the training department sent me that you could tell hadn't showered in weeks.They would send me guys that didn't speak hardly any English. They would Set it up up so that we really didn't have the opportunity to train very much except on either end of the route at which time they would be doing nothing but backing. But they're wrong about the winter driving and hill driving, they do go over that in the school. They also get to practice it in SLC while driving the road course, or did back in 2014-2017. Most of the students they would send me were broke 99% of the time and the DM's and Load Planners would allow us to sit sometimes for up to 3 days with no load, which meant I would be feeding these guys without being reimbursed on a regular basis. On top of this, they would give me a huge hassle on paying detention and layover. The truck, regardless of trainer and trainee occupancy was a working truck on a working route if dedicated or OTR. C.R.England moved the trainers off the Dedicated lanes and placed them all on OTR where all the layover problems and lack of pay began with all the sitting. I literally watched one of my trainees lose 5lb on my truck because it took 3 weeks to get his 180hrs drive time. The loads were so scarce I barely drove at all to give him all the hours. I moved into being an instructor from working the dedicated route for Nestle SLC - Springfield to Streetsboro, OH & Gaffney, S.C. making 2K a week getting close to 7K miles with a team mate to making just over 300-400$ a week as a trainer because of sitting so long. Yeah I brought all these concerns up with the training department and the planners and the DM's and anyone else who would listen and it all fell on deaf ears. I quit just shy of my million safe mile mark in 2017. Trucking isn't what it used to be, And with C.R. England they want steering wheel holders and butts to fill seats, they care more about that than they do the welfare of their drivers. I made quite a few friends while working out o SLC, The people were good, but the company left a lot to be desired. I could deal with being in the 62mph gang, but I couldn't deal with all the sitting, the small paychecks, and the resistance from management to do anything about it. My time as an instructor was horrible. My advice to anyone that decides to work for this or any other school company is to get a lane on a dedicated fleet and stay there... Do not for any reason let them talk you into becoming an instructor!
Great interview from students that are honest and brave enough to speak the truth of trucking. Thanks for sharing because now I realize I wasn’t the only one having a rough start into the Industry.
They clearly did not do any research before applying to CR England or any trucking company. These two gentlemen are going to have a hard time in trucking in general
I went from England to rail late 90’s and trained with some rails that trained with wwII vets back in their day and let me tell ya everything but a boot up my… I put up with it and was treated well after completing.
I worked for this company for 2 years! Great equipment, great facilities, if your truck breaks down, they will send a rescue truck and get it fixed as soon as possible! I had to leave this company because of family emergency otherwise I could have still be working for them! I was doing flatbed great pay too! But refer sucks i didn’t like it! I was thinking of going back but 62mph keeps away! I would love to have it at 70mph or even 68MPH
I always tell a recruiter after they get done with their sales pitch and I quote "ok now no bullshit tell me the truth what is really going to happen." If they refuse to tell you go to a different company.
Thanks for the great video and students review. I am not saying it didn't happen, but its is hard to believe that a recruiter said all ilof that stuff. I can't tell you how many companies I researched and bow many times I am still goi5to the website reading because I want to be informed and have no surprises when my wife and I come to England. Thanks again for all the information and videos.
At c r england now was to start orientation today as a experience driver get here last night no reservation at the hotel and no shuttle service to orientation so I now leaving Waiting for my ride home . They told not to drive my car to orientation because of no parking so I figured I get dropped off . Be careful coming to C.R england
That guy in the blue is HELLA racist “Massa as we call him” SMDH and he’s also super negative in general. You are a whole grown man and you want the school to provide you with cigarettes
This has me excited about getting on the Crackhound and getting out to Salt Lake! I want to get into one of those great lease deals. What is it, 70 cents a mile to the truck?
Good video bro,, a lot of people in the comments saying he’s a racist but coming from a black man I honestly don’t think he’s racist,,, Muslims do be extra And need to pray outside or something
I'm starting next Monday 7-8-2019. I'll have money in the bank to take care of myself when I need to, also driving my own car to training. I don't want to depend too much on promises, false or true, which might not be kept. I do expect proper training and treatment, you get respect when respect is shown. Looking forward to join the company! Greetings from this Amsterdam guy in Cali.
The guy in blue is for sure not cool and a blowhard. CRE in the end is a good company to get your foot in the door and sacrifice must be made. I’ve talked to 6 month driver and career CRE drivers that are happy with the money and the company. I’ve seen a lot of people quit and complain over stupid shit. IMPO these people shouldn’t be truck drivers cause to be a successful driver IMPO you need a good work ethic and respect for others.
Trucker Al heads up to all new students being told there is a guaranteed pay of 700$ a week in phase two, as of May 27th that is no longer true. I’ve seen a few people quit because of that, but if you do the #s you could possibly make more money at 34 cents split for team driving. Work hard be safe home safe😃
I drove for CRE pods account with Patric and best thing ever they treat you good get you home in time was making 1000+ a week wouldn’t mind going back to flat bed
They don’t charge you for the hotel at all. You are responsible for all your meals though so bring enough money to survive on. Your first 6 months are the biggest struggle. Remember that
It should be illegal for the recruiters to give *false advertising* I loved this video but the guy in Blue is a Bit to much between his language and bad attitude. Other than that great Video and be safe out there
It’s cool how CR England doesn’t think it’s a bad look to have some foul mouthed, hardly literate racist, who can’t even get through a Full Metal Jacket quote without sounding like he’s got a mouthful of peanut butter representing them. Very glad I passed on that.
I've Applied Accepted They didn't even Discriminate based on Gender as I am A Transgender and I'll Hopefully be There Come October 2020 as I've got a 2005 Chevy Monte Carlo Ls Shop Bill to Pay off than It's Time to Pay My 2011 Fine off to get to School, After Watching This I'll update My Recruiter I'll be Driving There and I'm gonna Pay Extra for My Fiancee to be at The Hotel with me
I appreciate there transparency!
This is why i paid for trucking school myself. And i found a great job 1 month later that gave me more training.
where did you go and how much did you pay I'm in Orange County California and I'm not sure where to go
Best way to do it

"Experienced drivers" do not go to CR England.

I want a student driver how iam in philippines
Lol. He wants cigarette money.. this guy is a bitter person. Just like most things in life, dont expect anything free.
Cr. England was the worst company ever!! I work for them for a year and two months, my paid was shit asf!!!!!
I can't believe there's 3 guys in one truck? There's not enough room in there for 3 guys??
They want me to start school in Atlanta on NOV 11th. Still learning or trying to memorize pre inspection.
They’ll drill it into your head while your there. TRUST ME!
They don’t charge you for the hotel at all. You are responsible for all your meals though so bring enough money to survive on. Your first 6 months are the biggest struggle. Remember that
That's crazy. 3 people in a truck. No way
If these are the kind of Bozos CR England hires, I think I’ll look elsewhere.
Michael Kuta that’s what your going to base your decision off of?? Good luck in the trucking industry
There are some nice people here at CR ENGLAND. I have enjoyed the program. Respect others. Yes study. Bht I have enjoyed it
You'll find all kinds in any company more or less, focus on you and your success and you'll be good
They remind me of people in the military and I hated being around the type of people they remind me of.
got 2 students in truck Why?
I curse every now and then but damn. Overkill man. And he comes off I tiny bit racist.
He’s HELLA racist... “we like to call him Massa” SMDH!!
No one likes islam.
@Brandon Hammons it is widely associated with Arabs. Anyone with common sense can put two and two together
@Brandon Hammons I was just saying anyone could deduce what said person was talking about
@@malvolio01 we love you too buddy! 🙏🏽❤️
So when you're training 2 students do you have 3 beds, or do you share beds?
Students share a bed. I’ve been done with England for a while now
It should be illegal for the recruiters to give *false advertising*
I loved this video but the guy in Blue is a Bit to much between his language and bad attitude. Other than that great Video and be safe out there
Why? You'd have to be dumber than shit to trust anything a recruiter says, they make commission based on people they sign.
Brandon Balderas ( it is illegal)
These guys have no chance in trucking, wouldn’t take anything they say seriously.
It’s cool how CR England doesn’t think it’s a bad look to have some foul mouthed, hardly literate racist, who can’t even get through a Full Metal Jacket quote without sounding like he’s got a mouthful of peanut butter representing them.
Very glad I passed on that.

Does the testing happen all at one place or the dmv
Your permit you get from DMV.
Training and road test is from the companies Terminal.
@Stephen Great video, How are you doing
Hope we get to know each other with time and patience?
Does cr england hire felons i have like 5 all non violent and all 5 years old some 7
