Pros
Great art, and some really nice, intelligent coworkers who are passionate about art.
Cons
Many of the employees are children/spouses of billionaire art collectors and are therefore unmotivated and not hardworking. In fact, one manager told me that sotheby's business model is to hire people who are independently wealthy. The floater program is essentially a means to abuse recent college graduates without providing them with a full time job even if there is no hope for a full time job in the future. Watch out for conniving/ manipulative employees!
