Thanks for the review! We take great pride in trying to provide a welcoming environment for early in career and developing employees. Community groups like "Generation Wiley" are a critical part of that success.

Pros

The Boston office is home to a lot of great people who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. There's a great community, especially among the younger, early career people in the office. You get 20+ PTO days your first year, which is nice.

Cons

The title is a bit misleading. At Wiley, an "editorial" assistant and the higher level "editors" do only administrative and account/client management work. There is no editing involved, and the writing is limited to writing emails and proposals. They're up-front about that, but some who see the title and are looking for creative work might be a bit put-off. $32,000 salary is low--especially if you have loans and want to live in the city.

Thanks for the review! It really helps us gain perspective on what people think and how we can best make changes and improvements. As many on Glassdoor have said, the people at Wiley are the best and we couldn't agree more.

Pros

They have coffee machines in the kitchen

Cons

They spend a lot of time and energy trying to appear as a great employer through industry awards and spruking employee benefits but try and avail yourself of these benefits (e.g leave for sudden illness) and they will bully you to take vacation leave instead, to preserve their all-important staffing budgets. Salaries are low for editorial staff.
