Pros

Fair, intelligent management. Good time off/vacation/benefits. Casual dress (jeans allowed at my location). Friendly executive management. All around good people and company.

Cons

Location (my location not in a desirable part of the country). Salary is ok, but higher salaries elsewhere. Would like the option of using vacation days as personal or sick days.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits for publishing.

Cons

Once of the most toxic work environments I've ever worked at. Upper management tears editors down if you are not a favorite. Favorites are chosen by metrics that do not exist, and are subjective and arbitrary. Wiley is losing money because brilliant, young editors leave due to no support and toxic work environments. Wiley Trade is essentially a hybrid publisher. Author's put a lot of money into their book -- too much. There is very very little marketing and publicity support for authors. But they brand as more than there actually is. All in all a very sad place to work and sad for authors.
