Pros

very social company, lots of young people, company hosts several employ parties during the course of the year. excellent benefits.

Cons

low pay for very hard work. they'd rather promote you in title only than pay you overtime. to get ahead, it helps to have a family with an art collection or lots and lots of money.

You get to understand the various sub art markets and which auction houses are able to better sell an artist or style.

Not enough pay. It's miniscule.
