Business Outlook

Pros

Work life balance is ideal. Colleagues (most) are super friendly and most of the senior management cares about your well-being. They just don't reflect that in compensation

Cons

No room to grow unless your manager truly cares and advocates for you

Thank you for your feedback, I'm disappointed to hear about your less than ideal experiences with career advancement. I see you are a current employee, and I believe it is our dedicated employees that sets us apart. I do hope that as Wiley's performance management and learning development teams continue transforming internal mobility, that it reflects toward your career goals. We appreciate your feedback and want all our employees to be seen and heard so we understand where we can improve.

Pros

Amazing leadership on my team that totally broke the mold. Supported, heard, and given ample opportunities for professional growth and development. Company overall very supportive during WFH transition and worked hard to make it sustainable.

Cons

Highly inconsistent pay across early career professionals. Not a living wage, but unfortunately, this is standard for the industry.
