      200 years old and all I got was a lousy T-shirt

      Pros

      Some good colleagues, somewhat collaborative culture

      Cons

      Very cliquish, true old boy network, no room for advancement, every single product comes out late to market and technology is always very clunky and behind the times but they are always proud and exclaim it to be the best on market even though competition salivates whenever up against technology at Wiley. Oh and get rid of crappy books that are not marketable. You stay with books way beyond their shelf life.

      Overall positive experience, but some time too much emphasis on process, and too much caution.

      Pros

      Respectful work environment, community spirited, drive for increasingly collaborative environment. Opportunities for personal development and training. Increasingly global outlook.

      Cons

      Can be process driven, can be too much caution prior to decision making, can be too hierarchical, and too many people involved in making sometimes quite small decisions. Can be quite conservative although creativity is encouraged.

      Pros

      The work/life balance is good. Generally speaking, I have really nice colleagues. The company is trying to move into the 21st century with more digital publishing initiatives. Benefits are quite good and employees are encouraged to take advantage of training opportunities. In years that the company does really well, bonuses can be great.

      Cons

      The bureacracy is horrible--it takes forever to get something done. Top management can be so tight-fisted, it takes forever to get necessary upgrades made. Advancement for women into the top managerial ranks is so bad, even the new CEO was forced to address it during company meetings after complaints were made. Pay isn't all that great compared to similar companies and raises are awful--the longer you stay, the worse the salary situation gets. Full bonuses almost never fully happen because required targets are often inflated. Advancement opportunities are limited.
