Pros

I had the honor to start working at Kiplinger when Austin was still involved. It was a pleasure to know the man. He was an exemplary person in his business and personal life. His son Knight followed in his footsteps. Knight is a man who cares about excellence -- in journalism, in publishing, in life. Working at Kiplinger was like joining a family.

Cons

Unfortunately, the company has been sold and is under new management. I can't vouch for what it's like there now.

Pros

Kiplinger was a family-owned business for most of the time I worked there, and it was an absolute pleasure to work with Austin and Knight Kiplinger. They maintained a pleasant work environment where people felt that they and their work were valuable. The company maintained high standards for quality and customer service.

Cons

The company was sold to Dennis Publishing shortly before I left, and of course that means change. Old Kiplinger had a tendency to pamper employees, and there was some bloat, which the new owners have trimmed. Time will tell how that works out.
