Unhealthy work environment - Gallery Assistant Merritt Gallery & Renaissance Fine Arts Employee Review

Beautiful collection to work with! Wonderful co-workers and management

Work on a draw/commissioned based salary.

The lowest staff. They are typically new to the industry and do not know that other places are like this.

Upper management are only concerned with themselves and them making money. The way they run the gallery does not follow industry norms. Additionally, your anxiety goes up because they yell at you and make things life or death. You can’t learn your job because upper management can’t explain or doesn’t know it. They allow visiting artists to be horrific to the staff. Does not value employees. Art Consultant’s contacts are stolen from them by the owners so they can take commissions themselves. Most back office jobs you can do from home but they refuse to allow that or work with you. While upper management does. They don’t care about you.
