Needs to work on a more collaborative culture and better salary, otherwise good place to work

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Great work life balance, good benefits, and great people (at least our team!).

Cons

Salary is not up to market rate. The company lacks communication and cohesion between different departments. There should be more collaboration between the different departments. Needs more innovation. Departments are not that social with one another, but this is also an issue of company culture.

Business Outlook

Pros

The time off was good.

Cons

I had been with Wiley for over ten years, my job responsibility tripled and then I was kicked to the curb! They told us they had squeezed everything the could out of us! No longer an American "Family" company! Not a transparent company!

Great publisher shame about the salaries

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Big company easy to stay anonymous, generous holiday allowances

Cons

Appallingly low salaries, especially given the location of both offices. If you aren't in sales you are basically overlooked, as of course they are the only people that do anything to make the companies run. Unfortunately, while publishing is an industry many people aspire to break into, it's not the most generous when it comes to salaries and often you do end up doing far more than your job description ever leads you to believe you will, especially when you work for an organisation like this that prefers to save money on support staff.
