Pros
Some very supportive and friendly colleagues, including managers.
Cons
As others have noted, Wiey has not adjusted to the digital publishing landscape. The WileyPLUS 5.0 failure was predicted by nearly everyone involved in the project. Colleagues pointed out the multitude of issues to management very early on and their concerns went unheeded. It was surreal. Those who kept the project going went unacknowledged. Wiley management also blew well over a million dollars on consultants and project managers who had no clue what they were doing and took advantage of the company's "work/life balance". Wiley has some great employees left but there are also many apathetic people and those who just can't keep up with digital growth.
