      Pros

      Fellow coworkers are generally great, focused on producing a quality product, and customer service. Company is focused on education and research products, which is rewarding.

      Cons

      Perpetually understaffed, leading to staff being consistently over capacity in workload. Reorgs and layoffs in different parts of company approximately every year for the last 6-7 years. Increased outsourcing has not sufficiently taken burden from remaining internal staff, and quality has suffered. The company invests in external hires at the expense of existing junior staff advancement and compensation.

      Pros

      Nice coworkers and managers, work-life balance, smart people and industry, opportunities to grow skillset. If you volunteer for opportunities, you will be supported and will learn a lot about the industry.

      Cons

      Pay and hybrid office work

      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.
