Pros
I enjoyed my time working at Wiley. Company culture was good, esp for a large company. Upper management encouraged maintaining a healthy work-life balance, and that was reflected in a generous PTO policy. I believe the base # of PTO days was 18 when I started, plus 2 floating holidays, and the # of PTO days would increase depending on your # of years employed there. 100% remote work was also a huge plus.
Cons
As with most companies, salary increases were not stellar unless you were getting an actual promotion. Promotion cycles were only offered once per year, and in my experience, you had to apply for a position opening to secure a promotion - they weren't offered based on performance. They did have a merit-based bonus system, but the % you're eligible more is dictated not just by your own performance, but also by the company's overall performance for that year, so...if it wasn't a great year for the business, it wasn't a great year for bonuses.
