Pros

Casual dress code. For the most part, everyone is very nice and easy to work with. Most people are very passionate about their jobs.

Cons

It's a huge company and suffers from bureaucracy and disorganization, diseconomies of scale. It doesn't help that publishing in general is on the decline. People get so into their work that they forget to take lunch breaks to socialize. Many employees are tied to their email accounts.

Pros

A lot of nice people and great books to work with.

Cons

Very antiquated systems. Sales teams and a lot of teams are in bubbles. There are a good amount of managers and higher ups that have been there for a while (10-30 years) and they don't like change, make their teams life hell, and keep them more siloed.
