Wonderful Wiley!

Pros

Great people. Awesome benefits (especially if you're in a grade 10 and above level). Pleasant atmosphere and great products. Focus is on digital but company is based on being in the publishing industry for over 200 years. 7th generation family owned...not a lot of companies can say that today! Work Life balance of a 35 hour full time work week is great.

Cons

Most in indy office report to managers at corporate level in Hoboken. Day-to-Day interactions are not seen by those managers which takes away from building camaraderie and isolates teams more.

Anxious atmosphere of a sinking ship

Pros

There are some brilliant, talented and loyal people in this company. They do create some good products, and being a company of 200+ years, have a great reputation. Good life/work balance.

Cons

Wiley is a company trying to stay afloat in a dying industry. Constant emails fly around about redundancies which creates an atmosphere of panic. Those in sales and strategy parade their importance while the overworked "grunts" are essentially ignored. Those in sales and upper positions are rarely in the office, which leaves disenfranchised employees sitting in isolated cubicles with their headphones in. Zero on-boarding and very little support. Systems archaic and very slow to move, with a lot of hand-balling to the US as an excuse not to enact important system changes. Management so nervously focused on sales that they don't seem to have the time or care to support or develop anyone. It's a shame that Wiley is quickly losing some of its best people.
