Business Outlook

Pros

John Wiley & Sons offers a great work / life balance, hours are flexible based on your own schedule however generally 9-5, dress code is casual and the atmosphere is very friendly and collegial. Teamwork is outstanding and management is trying to create an environment where people help each other with only very personal and political animosities.

Cons

John Wiley & Sons was a rather conservative working environment and as somewhat common in the Publishing industry things tend to move somewhat slowly. For people seeking a very fast paced environment that presents ongoing challenges and day to day changes Wiley might not be the best place to start looking.

Business Outlook

Pros

Everyone you work with is smart -- your fellow editors, your authors, your publicists, etc. Most editors have PhDs in their field areas and stay on top of developments in their discipline. You cannot work in the editorial department without learning a ton about your subject and current thought in it. The office is casual and very open. I never got a sense that there was competition and people on 'rival' lists wanted to help each other hit targets. Half of my intern group was hired into fulltime positions

Cons

Like all publishing jobs, the pay is dismal and you have to work long hours to make those deadlines. There's also some disillusionment with academia that sets in once you reject 200 proposals in one day knowing that all those professors need to be published to get tenure.
