      Pros

      Great, talented colleagues. Good work/life balance but that is ultimately dependent on your line manager.

      Cons

      There's really no clear focus. At least in certain areas. Someone leaves and they don't rehire in a foolish effort to save money. And just push the work to capable already maxed out colleagues under the guise of it's "good visibility" etc. Then people just try to keep everything afloat with no clear possibility of advancement because you're stretched so thin doing a million different things that at the end of the day really aren't related.

      Thanks for the review. You're right that the people at Wiley are great, talented, dedicated people. It sounds like you're feeling overworked and under appreciated. Have you considered getting in touch with your Human Resources Business Partner to discuss some options?

      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.
