I believe it should be 'i' before 'e'.

You are presenting a distorted version of a spelling rule, i before e except after c; this applies to words such as receipt, believe, and so forth. It also has exceptions, such as weird. Even though it does not come after a c, the e is before the i in the word weird. There are some others, as well. English spelling is complicated.
