Retoucher Reviews

What is it like working as a Retoucher?

December 2020
New York, New York is very competitive.
Retoucher in New York:
Pros: I had a lot of opportunities to make connections, learn a lot about my field by actively participating, and also know I can always pivot into a different line of work with the same opportunities to grow and learn. Being surrounded by like-minded people is exciting and a constant source of inspiration.
Cons: New York is very dense in any field you go into, so there is a lot of competition. Everything is extremely fast-paced with short deadlines, so you have to be on it, full-tilt, all of the time. It is easy to get exhausted, burnt out, and get a little lost. If you have the right employer, they can rally you to feel motivated and excited to perform. If you have the wrong employer, you can feel like a failure and easily become disgruntled and disenchanted. It's easy to lose your way unless you learn to surround yourself with the right people, or become your own boss.

Pros: Good culture, fun atmosphere. Good job for an artist.
