      A Tarnished Star - Product Manager Wiley Employee Review

      Pros

      Still holding onto the vestiges of its once notoriously friendly and humane working culture

      Cons

      Over a decade of financial struggles have left the workforce in shambles. Massive reorganizations and layoffs have been the pattern here at least once a year, sometimes more frequently. The company has struggled with organic growth for years, and is left doing little more than cost cutting and liquidating their worst performing assets. The future of the company looks grim.

      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.
