We're Genuinely Great to Work With
That’s why we’re drawing top-notch architects, interior designers, engineers, landscape architects, water resource experts, management experts, and more to our firm. Perhaps it’s because we value collaboration and creativity. Perhaps it’s our strong entrepreneurial culture that lets people shape their future, not just take what’s handed to them. Perhaps it’s that our team members believe they can make an impact here and see their good ideas come to fruition, or know their coworkers have their back or know their hard work is valued. And that life outside of work is equally valued.
Whatever the reason, it’s why we’ve consistently been named one of the 101 Best & Brightest Companies to Work For!

Culture
We care about balance.
It’s the people who make Progressive AE what it is— a group of smart, innovative, collaborative people who understand and care deeply about good design. We share a belief that design can and should make people’s lives better, help organizations perform better, and make the earth a better place. We foster openness. We encourage an entrepreneurial spirit where people can make an impact and can see their good ideas come to fruition. And we don’t relegate creativity just to “creatives”—we encourage original thinking in every part of the organization–from human resources to finance to design and engineering.
We take our work seriously. We take our clients seriously. But we try not to take ourselves too seriously. We believe a bit of fun, laughter, and some self-deprecation go a long way in fueling the creative spirit and keeping work and life in balance.
We invest in people.
There’s always room to grow. As an employee-owned firm, we’re committed to putting people at the center of everything we do—ensuring they have rich opportunities to learn, grow, advance, and apply their learning across the many disciplines we practice. It’s good for our people and it’s good for our firm.
