Pros

I have had an opportunity to work with an excellent team who are dedicated to their work with highest level of commitment. If not for relocation I won't have left. They even awarded me by a performance bonus after I had left for previous fiscal year. It came as a surprise and in my managers word..."was deserving".

Cons

Change is fast...Need to slow down as employees are not effectively prepared for it.

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.
