Pros

- A lot of PTO even if you are just starting - The office is conveniently located in Hoboken - Competitive pay

Cons

- The company has no direction. When I asked my managers what will my role look like next year, no one had an answer. - The company is having a hard time transitioning to the digital age and no concrete plan for how they want to accomplish this. - It's hard to do your job when you are being suffocated by many levels of management - This place has a culture that is hostile to young people. If you are young, there is no way to be promoted or even have autonomy over what you work on. Your managers will treat you like children who need to be told what to do every step of the way

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.
