      No Longer "The Place to Be" - Anonymous employee Wiley Employee Review

      Pros

      Decent location with on-site cafeteria, close to NJ transit/PATH trains, on-site exercise classes (if you have time) and decent pay for the publishing industry.

      Cons

      The company is undergoing an extensive restructuring. It's unclear if management actually has a cohesive plan for how to meet demands of digital industry; they don't seem to really understand technology. Management has also been secretive about layoffs; every day there are more people who lose their jobs or quit out of sheer exhaustion/frustration. Morale is as low as it can go.

      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.
