Pros

Great benefits, friendly colleagues. People are always willing to help solve a problem even if it doesn't fall under their responsibilities. Great benefits. Hosts great events and takes great care to be inclusive.

Cons

Very large company so you have to work hard at making lasting connections. Need to be extroverted otherwise you will get lost in the shuffle.

Five stars! Thanks so much! You're absolutely correct about the importance of making lasting connections. If you have suggestions on how we might be able to help make that process easier please get in touch with the HR team or start a conversation in the company Yammer group - we'd love to know what you think!

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.

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.
