I'm sorry you've been having a rough time of it lately. Changes at work, whether they be leadership, staff, systems, or processes, are an important part of growth and development but can definitely be a source of stress. Please know that we do read all of your feedback and relay it to the right people. Thanks for the review!

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.
