Pros

Very friendly atmosphere, convenient location, has a greater scope for learning, managers are really supportive and friendly. A great company to work with. Technology oriented and delivery driven atmosphere.

Cons

The dress code can be a little bit more lenient. The company has a number of businesses, which they are in the process of integrating, but they have yet to move completely away from their siloed approach.

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.
