Great coworkers, too much bureaucracy

Pros

People are Wiley's best assets: hard working, friendly, down-to-earth people. The Hoboken office location is in perfect proximity to NYC and NJ suburbs. Internal promotion and compensation is very fair, as far as publishing companies go. Layoffs are a sensitive process, but Wiley was very fair and gave people considerable notice before they were expected to leave the company.

Cons

Change and the accompanying turmoil is not being handled well. The publishing industry as a whole is trying to reinvent itself, and Wiley is, too, but with lots of starts and stops and unfulfilled promises to its employees. The attempt to eliminate unnecessary bureaucracy resulted in increased bureaucracy, outsourcing IT has resulted in spamming of the entire company every time something breaks, and internal data integrity is as bad as ever . . . all of which makes folks question who is really managing the change at this company and where Wiley is headed.

Stagnant and insecure

Recommend
Business Outlook

Pros

It's an easy place to work -- casual environment, and the actual work is not stressful.

Cons

Don't expect a promotion, management never changes and there is no room for advancement. Layoff and re-organizations happen monthly and upper management is not forthcoming or honest about what's coming next. Most staff is underpaid compared to industry standards.
