Pros

Pretty much everyone who works there is nice and there is a genuine positive attitude towards caring for its staff. Salary's are good but these days you can forget about getting a pay rise whilst staying in the same job.

Cons

I've been there over a decade now and there's a re-org every 2 years, for me its been 50/50 whether I'd have to apply for my job again. Every second re-org is a massive one, my last smaller re-org hadn't event finished before the current bigger one kicked off. One of the main departments has just reduced by a third and 20% of the remaining jobs are now listed as a new entry level job. Its starting to feel very much like a dying business. I've had a question mark over my job for the best part of a year now. Its horrid. EDF used to feel more like a family but now its soulless. Cost of living increases are better than nothing but you'll be lucky to get over 0.5%

Pros

Real opportunities to grow into more technical roles (Control Center Operator → Systems Engineer paths exist and aren't just on paper). You get hands-on experience with industrial systems most people only read about — OSI PI, SCADA, OMS integrations, cloud telemetry — which is hard to get elsewhere. Management generally supports continued education and certifications.

Cons

Decisions move slowly. Getting tooling, software, or process changes approved often involves multiple layers, including approvals that flow up to the French parent company. Procurement and IT requests can take weeks for things that would take a day at a smaller company. Some legacy systems and processes haven't been modernized — you'll find yourself working around quirks instead of fixing them.
