Excellent place to be.

Pros

Great, smart colleagues. Best publishing house to work at in the industry. The Wiley family still plays an important role in the company -- culture is solid. Not cutthroat and hyper corporate like other publishing houses.

Cons

Marketing is undervalued by company leaders.

Pros

A virtual paradise for people new to day-side editorial work. Come in at 8 to 8:30 a.m., leave 4 to 4:30 p.m. Easy-to-handle workload vis-a-vis more demanding editorial jobs. Collegial environment, full amenities, super location for commuters. Very generous benefits.

Cons

Management apparently can't distinguish great editors from good or subpar editors, so opportunities for promotion are virtually nil — unless you're in sales/marketing, in which case you can move out of the cubicles quickly and into an office. "Lifers" can bog down simple operational processes. Quite hard to "work the room" and build your personal reputation among other potential managers who could promote you; far too "chain-of-command" oriented, which allows credit-stealing managers to keep their iron grip on cushy jobs.

Pros

The location is great and convenient to mass transit. There was a consistent schedule with very little overtime. Good intro job.

Cons

A little too serious and stiff.
