      Cons

      -Toxic work environment -Terrible Leaders & PMs -Don't care about the personal growth of employees -Excessive number of meetings just to boast about their work culture -Petty politics and power struggles between leaders -Team leads and Eng. Managers dictate what you do. It's their way or the highway -They hire from Pearsons, their friends so, you're out of luck if you run into a problem with them. Upper management will back them up -Demotivated and Mostly incompetent engineers -They hire from Sri Lanka and they have their own agendas and schemes

      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.
