Pros

Work life balance Travel Budget

Cons

At one point in time I wanted to see a therapist and with Wiley's medical coverage + my salary, it would not cover the cost. I approached a senior leader about this and she did not do anything about it.

Pros

Flexible workplace with amazing benefits including paid parental leave. Execs are reachable and you can find yourself having a video chat conversation with an EVP, for example. Most of my colleagues are either entering their start of the career or have been with Wiley for decades. I’ve never seen so many people stay with one company for the entirety of their career, which speaks a lot to the culture and great pay.

Cons

Work-life balance is sometimes a challenge, as emails are coming in at all hours. The company supports *actual* down time and disconnecting, though hard to do as a newbie.

Thank you so much for your positive feedback and we are thrilled that you highly recommend our company to your friends and family. We hope that you continue to grow and develop incredible leadership skills at our company to help teach newer colleagues. We do work in various time zones, which makes it difficult to stop after-hours emails, and the feeling to jump in right away. However, we strongly encourage all employees to only respond to emails during their chosen work hours to ensure a healthy work-life balance, even when you are a newbie!
