Pros

Great culture. The people are all really passionate about what they do and everyone is very collaborative. They have a Social Boston Sports team, a book club, and do mixed lunches.

Cons

There is a huge amount of turnover and restructuring so it feels like as soon as you get settled in a new role it's changing again. The management is hit or miss, there are some really knowledgeable members while others have very little management experience and there definitely needs to be better internal training for managers.

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.
