Pros

Good 9 to 5 culture. London Locations are great. Safety culture improving on non-nuclear sites. Work-Life balance with big room to flexibility (not open to all and big elements of favouritism if you synchronised with top tier managers)

Cons

Top tiers of management are useless and not prepared to challenge the business just want to keep the status quo. They pay no attention to employee needs but also not worry with business performance. EDF energy show elements of a "grow-up" company from the nuclear side but anything non-nuclear related is rubbish and very detrimental and depressing to be perfectly honest.

Pros

The pay is the hold on you.

Cons

Where do i start. Pathetic management who all take turns kissing the CRM backside. Managers cant speak to staff correctly let alone customers. Only way to advance is to offer sexual favours. My manager does this on each staff night out once wine is in. Unrealistic targets...disgusting approach to staff... no support network. Offer the world and promise gold but give peanuts. KEEP AWAY!!!!!

Pros

I joined a subsidiary (EDF Fenice) during a significant turnaround and it has been an exciting experience. Job was challenging but colleagues nice and supportive

Cons

When I left things were again chancing and not for good. Inspiring CEO left and some other leaders and company went through a restructuring process
