Pros

global company so you can get an opportunity to work with people from different countries.

Cons

Very badly managed company and very corrupt organization. The management treats the employees like slaves and never listens to their problems. They put pressure to perform but will not give you any support. The management does a lot of partiality and the those who are close to the MD Vikas Gupta only get the benefits and every one else is treated like a slave. Vikas Gupta also gets a lot of unethical things done by people close to him using his power and position in wiley india and those who support him get the appraisal and benefits and advantage. there is no value for hard work and talent and you can be asked to leave without giving any reason if you don't cooperate. The MD Vikas Gupta and few other senior management is also facing sexual harassment charge from an employee but still they don't behave properly. All the top management works with the MD Vikas Gupta to exploit the organization through corrupt practices.

We are sorry to see that you are not having as positive of experience as you hoped at Wiley. For other viewers of Glassdoor, please note that the reviewer’s claims were taken quite seriously. Wiley went through a thorough investigation process including an industrial tribunal and review by an independent committee. The duly constituted panel found that these allegations were not supported by credible evidence. Our HR executives managed the situation well and acted appropriately. We remain committed to creating an environment of respect and dignity toward each other and ensuring we all adhere to our standards for business and social conduct.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits for publishing.

Cons

Once of the most toxic work environments I've ever worked at. Upper management tears editors down if you are not a favorite. Favorites are chosen by metrics that do not exist, and are subjective and arbitrary. Wiley is losing money because brilliant, young editors leave due to no support and toxic work environments. Wiley Trade is essentially a hybrid publisher. Author's put a lot of money into their book -- too much. There is very very little marketing and publicity support for authors. But they brand as more than there actually is. All in all a very sad place to work and sad for authors.
