Pros

Employ friendly company with great respect for every employee. Everyone can be as open and as critical as they want to be. Feedback is welcome in the company and actual measures are taken to improve.

Cons

The strategy and process are quite chaotic at the moment, change exists but at a very slow pace, salaries are average or below average, appraisal cycle is quite delayed - leaving employees waiting for too long. Unstructured for a while now

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.
