Pros

There is a focus on quality that is not seen at some of the competitors. The company is trying to grow in new product offerings and developing areas of scientific research in which it hasn't previously competed.

Cons

Red tape and management approval of Everything just gets in the way. The company has a desire to innovate and change, but the process seems to always get slowed down by something.

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.
