Business Outlook

Pros

* It used to be a great place to be - it was a company full of enthusiasm, energy and drive.

Cons

* The continual redundancies has ruined a great work place environment * Wiley has been incredibly slow to embrace the digital landscape - it needed to be proactive not reactive * Senior management only communicate through buzzwords and has very little interest in company morale

Massive Changes and Confusion

Anonymous employee

Pros

Good benefits (and - it must be admitted - generous severance benefits as well) and great colleagues who love what they do.

Cons

Undergoing massive changes and the environment is one of instability and confusion. Many people have been laid off and more have left due to the instability. The central values are changing.

Too Much Change Too Fast

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

A company with history going back to Poe. Salary and Benefits in general are good, but a moving in a negative direction.

Cons

The changes that are happening currently are moving too fast. It seems that a company that has lasted over 175 years is relying on consultants to make dramatic changes to the Core of what the company represented. There is no longer any care or interest in how the changes affect staff. No longer is there a look to see if existing staff can be retrained for new positions, out with the old in with the new is the new mantra. When the old leave the new are lost on who to contact for anything, relying on the remaining few to point them in the right direction. One more email about staff leaving and we will be checking for more redundancy across the globe. No idea why there has not been any article in any financial columns about the thousands that have been cut.
