A question
Hello,
I have a question about two sentences :
"I work for the XXX compagny since 20144"
"I have been working at XXX for 4 years"
What is the best choice ? or are they both good ?
Thanks for your help ! :)

When an action or condition began in the past, and has continued until the present time, you should use either the present perfect simple tense (example: I have worked for the company since 2014), or the present perfect continuous (example: I have been working for the company since 2014).

Hello,
thanks for your advices !
In fact I would say 2011 (and not 20144).
and so, I 'm still working for this compagny.

Hi Marion, either option is fine to use, however the the first option should be changed slightly to this:
"I have worked for XXX since 2014"
Both would be used if you currently work for the company. If you no longer work there you could say:
"I worked for XXX between 2010 and 2014"
"I worked for XXX for 4 years"
Cheers, Sam

i think if you still working then it should be . " i'm working for x company since 2014 "
and if you was working and quit then it will be " i have been working at x company for 4 years "
