Running into the same issue. A user with admin privileges can edit customer just fine, but a user with custom access (Sales/Orders, Customers, System/Notifications) cannot access Edit Customer page. After clicking Edit link on the customer grid, the page fails to load. Fatal error is found in php log (the same error as reported in the original post.)

Magento ver. 2.2.0

@kevincream, thank you for your report.
We've acknowledged the issue and added to our backlog.

We have the same issue.

We had the same issue. I tracked it down to the following block definition in vendor/magento/module-newsletter/view/base/ui_component/customer_form.xml.

I didn't have the time yet to find a good solution, For now I commented out this block as we don't use newsletters in our shop. But this is only a hacky fix and not the final solution

<form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd">
    <htmlContent name="newsletter_content">
        <block acl="Magento_Newsletter::subscriber" class="Magento\Customer\Block\Adminhtml\Edit\Tab\Newsletter" name="newsletter">
            <block class="Magento\Customer\Block\Adminhtml\Edit\Tab\Newsletter\Grid" name="newsletter.grid" as="grid"/>
        </block>
    </htmlContent>
</form>

Workaround is:

Permissions -> User Roles give your user following permissions:
tick: Marketing -> User Content
tick: Marketing -> Communications -> Newsletter Queue
tick: Marketing -> Communications -> Newsletter Subscribers

@martinhetschel doesn't work for me, unfortunately...

[martinhetschel]

This is what is working for my office users after upgrade to 2.2.2

[tesilCz]

@martinhetschel It works with permissions set like that, thanks ! However adding those marketing ones wasn't a fix. Was something within "sales" or "catalog" for me. (running 2.2.0)
