Pros

If you really want to get started with your own publishing business, Wiley India is the best place to start. Vikas Gupta, the Managing Director of Wiley India himself helps the employees climb up the ladder if success. The office has an environment of friendliness. Though you might find a bit of friction here and there but it tells you that the office is on its gears.

Cons

Can’t think of a drawback of joining this company but if you’re afraid of big events and meeting well-established scholars, this company isn’t for you. To work here, you need confidence and a passion for books and research. The office can be sometimes fast-paced and at times very demanding in quality and work content.

Nice coworkers and managers, work-life balance, smart people and industry, opportunities to grow skillset. If you volunteer for opportunities, you will be supported and will learn a lot about the industry.

Cons

Pay and hybrid office work

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.
