As somebody who has worked in Wiley for many years, I had (quite a while ago) heard about the sexual harassment allegations made against the MD of India, which have been repeated on Glassdoor reviews elsewhere. I was willing to reserve judgment, not knowing all the facts.
But prior to this, this particular MD did have a reputation around the company for coercing his employees to rate him well on evaluations. At the time, it provided a bit of a harmless chuckle, and people just laughed at the weirdness of this sort of power-tripping. We overlooked the ethical implications, figuring his place as head of India was secure either way.
But now that I see a flood of five-star reviews, specifically calling out his name with effusive praise, I can only assume he has once again coerced his direct reports to fill the platform with positive comments and push the negative ones down.
The issue is not just this individual, but with the broken culture in Wiley. The leadership of the company pays lip-service to building an empowering environment for working women, but that's all it is: lip-service. The leadership knew of this problem (this is just one -- there are others in other locations) but they chose to overlook it because India is a key rung in their emerging markets strategy.
