      Pros

      Good PTO, if you can actually find the coverage you need to take it. Otherwise you don't get to use it and it disappears at the end of the fiscal year.

      Cons

      They literally do not care about paying their employees. They don't care we are starving and all working second jobs just to barely afford food and rent. Of course Brain Napack thinks our miniscule increases every year are fair, he makes at least $5 million a year while most of us bring in less than $42k (and I don't even make that after being there 3.5 years). If you ever get a job here, keep looking until you land something better. It's fine in the interim, but you will not move up like your managers promise.

      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.
