Restructuring

Anonymous employee
Recommend
Business Outlook

Pros

For the most part, the employees are intelligent, hardworking, committed, and collegial.

Cons

The restructure has resulted in many layoffs and extremely low morale. The company's corporate culture has dramatically changed (for the worse).

Pros

Some good colleagues, somewhat collaborative culture

Cons

Very cliquish, true old boy network, no room for advancement, every single product comes out late to market and technology is always very clunky and behind the times but they are always proud and exclaim it to be the best on market even though competition salivates whenever up against technology at Wiley. Oh and get rid of crappy books that are not marketable. You stay with books way beyond their shelf life.

Too much focus on a nonexistent culture

Recommend
Business Outlook

Pros

Flexibility, not really any emergencies in the industry, Actual coworkers are friendly across different teams. Pockets of great teamwork can show flashes of inspiration and growth.

Cons

Three years of twice-annual layoffs and restructuring across multiple divisions has led to serious stagnation within many teams, while C-level teams discuss growth and culture. Licensing deals are not growth. New products or tools are discussed with no mention of GTM. Hybrid and remote employees are pressured to RTO to grow Wiley's culture. I'm not opposed to RTO or hybrid but Wiley has invested a significant amount of money in creating attendance dashboards, monitoring tools, meanwhile ignoring salary adjustments, career growth, and anything that would actually make people want to return to an office location. An occasional free-food event is not company culture.
