      Truly Dismal - Director Wiley Employee Review

      Pros

      Work/ Life Balance can be okay. Many people leave at four, but that is largely because of apathy.

      Cons

      Management regularly demeans the staff. If you enjoy being told you are not good at your job and want to be talked down to every day, this is the place for you. The place is completely demoralizing. Upper management, particularly in Technology, is too worried about territory and politics to provide a decent working experience. Employees are treated badly.

      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.
