Pros

- Supportive colleagues who are doing their best in a business environment that lacks resources, clear direction, and a sustainable model. - Generous PTO policy (unlimited), though you may face criticism for taking time off if it's perceived that you are "behind" on work.

Cons

- A toxic workplace culture driven by excessive micromanagement, constant criticism, and unprofessional behavior from management. - Frequent, unproductive meetings. - Shifting goals and frequent leadership turnover, leading to rapid departure of top talent. - Outsourcing to third-party vendors with inconsistent quality and lack of expertise. - Ineffective HR and legal teams that fail to support employees properly. - Employees are stretched thin and unable to focus on meaningful work.

Buddy system prevails

Pros

Benefits package, generous time off, nice office and location

Cons

If you are buddies with senior leadership you will go far at Wiley. Your level of experience, knowledge, effectiveness hardly matter. Leadership will ensure that their buddies are always secure, shuffling them around with new opportunities. Honesty is gone at Wiley. It used to be a great place to work until the bro culture took over.
