    Honestly I never heard anything good about CRST. Is this driving school theirs or an outside school? Where in California is it?

    I used to live in Cedar Rapids, IA. I talked to my brother who still lives there. They have a lot of drivers that didn't make the cut and they send them to the Salvation Army or homeless shelters. CRST don't even bother getting you a bus ticket to get you back home.

    Probably the worst company out there.

    What will they pay you in training and once you're teaming with another driver?

    crst
    No cdl training pay charge you for there housing (150-200 a week) and food if you eat there food (5-6per meal)
    Pay scale- all split miles between you and co driver/trainer

    Month 1-2: $.22/mile
    Month 3-5: $.23/mile
    Month 6-11: $.34/mile
    Then every 6-9 months you will go up a pay grade, which is $.01 to $.02 a mile

    not recruiter for them in any way i looked into them there are bad storys about them and some good ones mostly a team driving company

    OP: so you were at CRE training? but now going to CRST? and yet you no nothing about pay or benifiets or how they actually work? not a smart move rookie you should research every company you look at before going there
