working at aei

Career paths at AEI are based on ability, fueled by interest, and follow need. The ultimate course might be linear, or it might not. But neither is necessarily predetermined or unchanging.

"I've built a career applying the skills with which I've been blessed to projects serving the broader good of humanity.  Now it's my responsibility to set a stage of similar opportunities for future generations within this organization."

“Not many companies would have gotten behind the idea of a twenty-five year old developing a practice area. It was a question of being given latitude to follow a passionate interest and then responding by aligning my vision with the firm’s goals.”

training and development

The key to professional acclimatization is learning the working culture and strategic priorities of an organization, and this is the basis of AEI’s “on-boarding” process— whether for new graduates or experienced professionals.

The process is directed but informal. Senior and junior hires alike work with office and market leaders and discipline facilitators to gain a full understanding of AEI’s approach to conceptual collaboration and integrative design, and thorough coordination with a rigorous quality control regimen. Whether by ongoing mentorship or a cooperative learning-by-doing, this develops our people as it serves our clients.
