Sence crst has offerd a pay raise to its drivers things have been better on the expidited side but at the end of the day it is what you make it. If you got a positive attitude about things you will do great if you just a negative person you most likely wont do that well

Lots of hours. Max out clock if you want. 6 days available most yards. 50% new equipment. Improving
Good Start Up
Con - never have enough trucks, also it takes several weeks for their maintenance techs to fix trucks.

Alright place
Learned a lot about the trucking industry, good benefits working hours were great and PTO was generous. Training was good.
I'm ok here

Night dispatchers are awesome anytime I have an issue they resolved it don't know where all the negative comments are coming from. No im not a rookie i have 7 years experience with other companies as a solo driver.
Challenging
To get your foot in the door and learn as much as you can about trucking.

Is CRST the evil empire?
CRST is portrayed in some forums as being the "evil empire". That is bull malarkey, and I can tell you those people doing that are the ones who could not cut it, when it came down to being on time, being available for loads, and being aware of the laws and safety issues that govern trucking.
Does CRST get more than their fair share of negativity on the Internet?
CRST does indeed get more than their fair share of negativity on the Internet and of course I always say that you make your own way in trucking regardless of the company you work for. If you run hard, you're safe, you're reliable, and you have a great attitude you're going to do well no matter what company you're with.
Does CRST have flat bed?
I didn't even realize that CRST had a flat bed division, but ran into a few drivers at an OSB plant in the North East. Were you aware of that? If you want to go into flat bed work you might could just move over to that division with out much of a problem. The driver that I spoke with talked like that was how CRST got started in the first place, but that their expediting business really grew fast into what it is today. This driver told me he was very happy with CRST and that he wouldn't work for anybody else hauling flat bed, because they gave him the best pay and home time he could ever ask for.
Does CRST have a safety rating?
CRST does have an awful CSA safety rating, that is true. That is due to a couple of things, mainly speeding tickets, (most are caught either on down hill areas or going into reduced speed zones), and not wearing the seat belts. In the year before I came to drive here, they became very serious about bringing that score down. They redid their entire safety department from the bottom up. They hired a couple of ex dot officers whose job it is to travel around to truck stops, find CRST trucks, and do mock DOT inspections on the tractors and trailers, to find violations before the real DOT finds them. The drivers are not penalized, just shown what to look for. Pretrip is what they want, and is what they expect. Right now, they are doing a huge repair and inspection on their trailers. We were in Laredo TX the other day at our drop yard there, and they had a repair service in there working and checking all trailers that came into the yard. They have told us that they are instituting a plan, where of we have a trailer that has a problem, and drop it without reporting it they are going to go back and look to see who dropped that trailer without reorting the problem, and penalize those drivers. That is where things stand.
