Wiley is a very people-friendly work environment.

Pros

They treat their employees very well, both personally and professionally. They go to great lengths to treat you 'like a person first and an employee second.' Compared to most companies, it has very little politics. The people here are very good people. And the Wiley family is great.

Cons

They tend to move very slowly to make decisions--there's a lot of paralysis by analysis, though there have been attempts to change that recently. It's a flat organization, so there aren't a lot of opportunities to move up. Also by being flat, management tends to be involved in a lot of decisions, which can often make people feel like they have responsibility but little authority.

One of the best publishers to work for.

Pros

JWS provides their employees with the flexibility they need to balance work and life. It all comes down to the kind of relationship you have with your manager, but overall, JWS is one of the most reputable publishers around.

Cons

One downside may be that they are based only on the East Coast and do not always provide advancements for those living in the midwest or west coasts unless they put time in the office in New Jersey.
