The bad rep Wizards have is that they are good burst DPS, but pretty shitty exp group dps. In order to not go oom, they can only cast 1 nuke per fight basically, so you wind up not doing much damage compared to say a rogue or even a mage (Pets help a lot).
Also, Wizards need to constantly med means it looks like they AFK a lot, even if they don't.
But, they are tons of fun in raids if you like seeing big numbers.
