Pros

Big distributed teams, challenging and complicated technology landscape provide good opportunity to get a lot of experience. Professional and friendly people with a lot of experience in the field. Very polished communication, after all, this is a publishing company. Very generous PTO policies.

Cons

Depending on the team, there is lack of focus and direction, too many overlapping processes and reports that no one reads or reviews. No room for professional growth or promotion unless you know someone in power. RTO policy doesn't make sense as implemented, there is no nuance or consideration for the job function. There is no leadership or accountability, people on the ground do a lot of good work, but leadership is not accountable. There are too many management layers adding to the inefficiencies.

Pros

Wiley was a great company to work for. You felt like management actually cared about you and your experience. The offices were nice and updated, too.

Cons

Even though I felt taken care of, a new CFO came into town and restructured many different groups. Unfortunately, there were layoffs and I was a victim. At that point, sadly, I felt like a number. It was a sad way to end an otherwise amazing experience.
