Pros

Solid passionate Leadership - Specifically, CEO, President, and most SVP's I've held many positions with AMLI. Working onsite at communities and in the corporate office. Upper Management has shown genuine interest in my individual career growth. This was proven when they not only supported my return to AMLI after I left for a year to work for a competitor, they supported my desire to grow with the company. I was given the support I needed to finish two college degrees and a career change to grow within AMLI. Encourages personal growth Promotes collaborative environment. Many really good employees as internal resources when working on projects or work issue/problems. Many opportunities for advancement in different departments is there if you want it and go for it. AMLI offers Tuition Reimbursement Awards, recognition, bonuses Mentor program available Contemporary office furnishings in the new Chicago office. New, light and bright. (see cons below) The Chicago corporate office is located in a great location and their are a lot of lunch choices or after work dining spots, which is a plus.

Cons

No terrible Cons, obviously because I've been here a long time and have no plan to leave. Does not currently support work from home opportunities in Chicago corporate office. Office layout is open concept. Some who like privacy may find that there is no privacy with glass offices. Loud talking, food smells, etc. You get used to it, but if your new to open concept, be prepared. Corporate politics - It's anywhere you go. The office temperature is 100% always freezing and there's no change season to season.

Thank you for taking the time to provide such a positive and thoughtful review. We are pleased to hear you have taken advantage of our tuition reimbursement program as well as the opportunities to experience both onsite and corporate positions. We appreciate your recommendation on more flexibility for work at home. Not all positions lend itself to work at home and require in-person presence and have found more effective collaboration and team work in certain groups. Please reach out to your manager or department head to discuss if there would be an opportunity for you to work at home, as needed. We have passed on your comments regarding the office temperature. Best wishes for your continued success at AMLI.

Pros

After 11 years in the multifamily industry, AMLI is the first company where I've genuinely felt that the culture aligns with the values they promote. Leadership is approachable, supportive, and truly listens to employees at every level. There is a strong emphasis on integrity, resident experience, and doing the right thing—not just when it's easy, but consistently. Employees are trusted, empowered, and encouraged to bring ideas to the table. The company invests in its people, provides opportunities for growth, and fosters a collaborative environment where teams support one another. The work-life balance, communication, and overall level of professionalism are unlike anything I've experienced in previous organizations. Most importantly, AMLI makes you feel valued as a person, not just as an employee. It's rare to find a company that genuinely practices what it preaches, and that's what sets AMLI apart. For the first time in my career, I feel like I've found a long-term home.

Cons

I have not identified any significant cons in my experience so far. After 11 years in the multifamily industry, AMLI has been a refreshing change. Leadership is supportive, communication is strong, and the company genuinely lives its values.

Where do I even begin? Working for AMLI has truly been a dream. It is refreshing to be part of a company that genuinely practices what it preaches, operates with integrity, and treats employees as valued members of the organization rather than just numbers.

The leadership and culture foster collaboration, innovation, and growth, and you can genuinely feel that the people around you care — not only about the success of the company, but about your personal and professional success as well.
