Pros

Vacations/PTO Work timings : Strictly 9 to 5 (but might vary depending on the team)

Cons

A lot of changes going on within the organization. They do not take efforts to keep the good employees in house. Most of them don't feel wanted. So they leave after a few years. Work from home options are restricted. This might be team specific. But then again in this age and time, people should not have to be physically present at a location to work. Maternity benefits are non-existent!

Thanks so much for the thorough review. We appreciate it and your feedback helps us look for ways to improve. Wiley does offer a variety of flexible work options; however, this could vary by location, team, and job function. It might be worth having a conversation with your manager and/or human resources to see if there are options available to you. Good luck!

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.
