Transforming for future success; not without some bumps

Business Outlook

Pros

Smart, committed staff make coming to work worthwhile. Great content and a strong desire to meet the needs of today's and tomorrow's consumers cultivate an atmosphere that values creativity and strategic innovation. Good work/life balance; global opportunities. Cafeteria food is delish.

Cons

Restructuring has resulted in some unforeseen challenges that must be overcome while still meeting unchanged near-term goals. Morale is low; changes feel driven by dollars and not necessarily by good strategy. This road trip may take longer than expected; pack a lunch, because you may not get one otherwise.

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent time off and benefits. Nice office in a casual environment. Some managers were very much invested in their staff. Growth and development in some areas.

Cons

The restructuring that has resulted in massive layoffs globally is based on consultants recommendations that don't understand the job. It was very demoralizing for staff that had tenure to be the first to go, many who had put many hours into developing and adapting to the continuous changes. The boys club is strong and binding at Wiley.
