Q. I do not speak Japanese (or English). Would it be an issue in performing duties?: Language used in work-related communication and proficiency requirements vary for respective sections/departments and each job type. Please check requirement details for the job types you wish to apply for.

Employment conditions

Q. Will there be a trial employment period, and how will I be treated during such period?: In general, trial employment period ("probation period") is set at 3 to 6 months. In principle, there is no change in pay conditions during this period.
Q. How is Personnel Evaluation carried out?: Through personnel evaluation, employees will set the goals for each fiscal year and the Company supports each employee's development by evaluating their performance and behavior. Based on the results of the evaluation, we will determine the amount of their (winter) bonuses and pay raise.
Q. How much will I have to work outside regular work hours? Will I have to work on holidays?: Average overtime hours for the entire company in F.Y. 2023 was 14 hours. We offer employees an environment where they can maintain a balance between work and private life. In 2023, AEC received "Okinawa Prefecture Work-Life Balance Company" certification.

Q. How much will Project Managers work overtime?: Average overtime hours for project management engineers was 20 hours in F.Y. 2023.
Allocated time for site work is limited for US Military Construction Projects.

Such environment enables employees to maintain a good balance between work and private life and fulfill their needs in family life, hobbies and learning,
