Wil, Customer Service Advisor says “I’ve been at EDF for six months now, and the best part has honestly been the people. The culture here is so welcoming, it really feels like one big team where everyone has your back. Whether you're new or have been here for years, there's a real sense of togetherness and support that makes coming into work something to look forward to.
What’s stood out to me is how easy it is to ask questions, learn, and grow. No one makes you feel silly for not knowing something, and there’s always someone willing to take the time to help. It’s a team that celebrates the wins, checks in with each other, and genuinely wants everyone to do well.
