Pros

- Excellent Work/Life balance - Genuine desire for improvement - Really nice people - Hoboken is one of the nicer places to work in the sense that you are only 1 subway stop away from Manhattan, but with a much more relaxed environment than if you were actually in NYC.

Cons

Wiley is attempting to make some major changes, but is not allocating the resources to do so as sensibly as they could. They are also attempting to eliminate siloing, but are doing it by consolidating departments, but not teams. This means that the team for Project A might be composed similarly to the team for Project B, but within each team, each member might have an entirely different management chain to report to, with conflicting approached and priorities. This makes teamwork more difficult, since teams don't rise and fall together, so when things go wrong there is much finger-pointing.
