      Pros

      My department is incredibly flexible. Work from home days are a given, as is scheduling around appointments. Everyone is extremely friendly and willing to assist others. The company is also above and beyond accommodating for disabilities.

      Cons

      I've had terrible experiences every time I've needed to work with HR. (Except for Oxford-based HR. They're lovely.) I interviewed in 2015 and it was a nightmare, from the job description not being posted correctly, the HR contact giving me the wrong interview time, and they never even emailed to say they were moving on to other applicants. They did that same thing to a friend of mine in 2018 as well. I gave them another chance in 2017 and the interview process was luckily smoother and I accepted. HR also messed up my insurance and it took 2 months to resolve. The in-office HR didn't give me any relevant paperwork once I started and I relied entirely on colleagues knowing what I would need or should know about.

      Thanks for the review! Flexibility is vitally important in a modern, connected workplace so I'm glad you're able to take advantage of that. So sorry to hear that you've had difficulty with some of the HR processes. Having defined processes is equally as important as maintaining flexibility so we'll be sure to relay the feedback.

      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.
