Pros

Flexibility, not really any emergencies in the industry, Actual coworkers are friendly across different teams. Pockets of great teamwork can show flashes of inspiration and growth.

Cons

Three years of twice-annual layoffs and restructuring across multiple divisions has led to serious stagnation within many teams, while C-level teams discuss growth and culture. Licensing deals are not growth. New products or tools are discussed with no mention of GTM. Hybrid and remote employees are pressured to RTO to grow Wiley's culture. I'm not opposed to RTO or hybrid but Wiley has invested a significant amount of money in creating attendance dashboards, monitoring tools, meanwhile ignoring salary adjustments, career growth, and anything that would actually make people want to return to an office location. An occasional free-food event is not company culture.

Great flexibility, low stress (at times), well-staffed, so there was a lot of support.

They shifted products to keep profits up, and management kept changing.
