Pros

I'm 7 weeks in and already love a lot about Wiley: 1) The company knows their North Star, their Sinek "WHY" and it's simple: "Building a better future through education, skill development, and research" and the bonus is that they've been doing this for 211 friggin years!! 2) The people are SO nice, super smart, and eager, eager, eager to improve processes and structure. 3) From a marketing perspective, Wiley is sitting on a goldmine of content--We can tell great stories, impactful, compelling stories for decades. 4) Hoboken HQ right on the Hudson, 100 yards from the train, ferry and bus terminal is in a stunning building with an incredible view of NYC and the river traffic. Love to visit that place.

Cons

Only one so far and it's mixed. Wiley is embracing remote working arrangements, more and more. It will take some time for their onboarding process to catch up, but that's to be expected.

You called out the fresh fruit! While a relatively small thing, it's often the little details that people appreciate the most. Thanks for the great review!
