Pros
What you can respect from Carmichael is that if you like a challenge with the amount of work provided, most of your shifts will flyby. Also, Carmichael provides various types of incentives: sick leave/pay and medical benefits, tacos/rewards, a yearly bonus, raffles during Christmas, amazing co-workers and you have an amazing president who will speak with you and at this very moment is currently fighting to keep his employees calm and employed during this pandemic. One huge fact is going to contradict my experience, but it's worth mentioning because my problem isn't with the organization as a whole, but with the people who were managing me. Some people have made a career with the organization working 30+years, and I do hope that if you do decide to work there you can find what their secret is.
Cons
Before accepting employment ask yourself these questions: do you have aspirations to become a broker? Are using this experience as a stepping stone to go to a similar but larger organization? Or are content with being broke, you will live paycheck to paycheck mostly because of today's economy? If the answer is no, then respectfully decline the job offer. It will not be fair to you and to Carmichael because... This is a very small organization with hardly any room for advancement, but it has very high standards and expectations of meeting its client's needs. Do not expect management or supervision to have sympathy for you if you make a mistake because of the very high-stress levels to be perfect with each shipment. Do not expect to get direct answers if you forget something. Do not expect to come out feeling good at the end of your shift, and do not expect to have the large amounts of new responsibilities to reflect your compensation. Having experienced a high level of Machiavelism (cutthroat behavior) at larger organizations, the behavior of Carmichael Management and Supervision is on par with that behavior you will experience with bigger industries. Weighing those two experiences, I concluded that I’d rather work for a larger organization if I am to experience the same cutthroat behavior. You will experience the same verbal seduction tactics... being told one thing verbally and not having any written form to back up your claims, then having an old contradictory e-mail be used as support against you and finally having co-workers too afraid to speak up on your behalf to prove to contradictions. If you're going to go through this at least have a carrot on a stick of someday being able to be promoted with better pay and being able to improve your lifestyle and economic class.
