    My son wanted to get his CDL A, he put out a bunch of inquiries, CR England was the first to call back. We didnt do enough checking around. It has been a miserable experience from training on through. He was left in Atlanta by his trainer- they hadnt done right by the trainer, he had been otr for over a year and they denies his leave, and he quit on the spot. He got stranded so many times by other people quitting on the spot and if you walk away you owe them the whole $5000.00 training expense. Their pay is also not up to standard. If you have any other opportunity please take a long look .

    Glad to hear it. I have heard Steven's pay can be a bit low but otherwise not bad for a mega. Certainly far better than what I like to call Cringeland (CR England).

    CR England is trying to recruit in Canada,,they will be in for a rude awakening if they try and pull the BS the I read in the previous threads. Labour Canada would be tearing CR England a new one.

    Is JB Hunt really that terrible? I've never really looked into them.

    That looks a bit cramped for the two people up top.
    But the trainer seems happy with the money part of it.
