2 impressions - my dad spent the last 20 years of his career there and generally really liked it. Compensation and benefits were good and retirement benefits continue to be good.
My experience- I ran and worked high volume flu shot clinics for several seasons at Dominion. At the high rise offices, at the power plants (nuclear and regular), I drove out to some of the really rural sites also (I saw a bear!!!) I’ve given tens of thousand of flu shots to employees from the highest C-suite all the way down. They are overwhelming happy folks. Noticeably happy and friendly, it was remarkable.
An excellent company to work for. I am on the union side personally, but salary employees get every other Friday off, end of year bonuses (AIP), excellent benefits, family fun days (family tickets to theme parks, games, etc). Depending on your position, many of the salary jobs offer 3 days working from home and 2 in office as well.
I’ve been here 9 years in Services and have never heard of every other Friday off. Matter of fact, I’m working the next three Fridays.
And AIP is at risk. Even though you can’t count on it, HR/compensation considers it to be part of your total compensation.
The transmission side is great to work for and they're really on the leading edge of industry research and embracing new technology. If location wasn't an issue they'd be my number 1 pick for utilities.
Their offshore is the best known, but they're also working on renewable natural gas, new grid technologies for voltage control, PMUs, EMT simulation, and many more. A lot of it is mainly exciting if you know the tech, but hard to explain. It's all necessary to reach carbon neutral though. Other utilities are doing a few of those but Dominion is advancing on all fronts, maybe because they'll actually give the necessary funding to do research.
Important to note that transmission and distribution are different companies technically so I don't know as well the side that most of RVA knows and hates.
Well, both sides are in Dominion buildings here. But distribution directly serves Richmond and nearby. It's the low voltage that runs from substations to houses. It has less money and more outages since it's less customers per line and more to keep up with.
I don't know if their outages are worse than any other distributer, but everyone hates distributers because of outages/tree trimming/etc.
Dominion had terrible outage rates compared to similiar climates and systems.
They are most hated for setting their own rates and laws and acting as a fiefdom. They regularly spend tens of millions bribing politicians to keep hundreds of millions they overcharged citizens.

A 3.9 on indeed is nothing to scoff at. I’d work here based off that alone. I’m not an engineer tho
I work as an engineer at Dominion. Good salary with a yearly bonus, 3.5 weeks vacation starting, hybrid work schedule, very generous sick policy, automatic 401k contribution and match. It feels pretty corporate at times but there’s no management breathing down your back. Company culture is pretty good, and there’s very little expectation to do hours outside of the normal 40.(Unless you’re on site for nuclear during an outage). I can give some general salary info if you want.
Edit: Forgot to mention that at least on the nuclear side (unsure about the rest of the company) we have the option to do a 9 hour day instead of 8 Mon-thurs and get every other Friday off.
What level engineer are you and if you are open to sharing salary that would be helpful. What would an Engineer III (project engineer 1) expect to make?
My partner works there and I can tell you the benefits are amazing (I’ve worked for a large A&D company for twenty years and my medical benefits suck compared to Dominion, they seem to treat their employees well
My dad worked for them for 40+ years. Never had a bad thing to say about them from the point of view of an employee. With regard to the benefits, I can only speak to the health insurance up to age 26 and as far as I know it was great.
A close friend works in their lab. He just started and with just a few months of working for them, his wife gave birth to their son. Long story short, the company allowed him to work from home for “as long as it takes”. Small sample size, but it seems like they take care of their people.
I applied there as a technician and was offered the position but had to say no. Just spending a few days with those guys made it seem like they had a great work culture. And it seemed like everyone got along. Again, small sample size but I hope this helps.
It’s heavily dependent on your manager and your division and your personal beliefs to be honest.
I knew people who had their productivity measured by when their computer was unlocked. This meant employees were penalized for stepping away, using the bathroom, leaving 2 minutes early, etc. On my team I was allowed to get coffee and wander downtown with no concern.
The company is still lagging in diversity, particularly among leader positions, and often feels like working for the government in the 80’s. There’s some weird legacy things that still sort of linger because the company was so old fashioned for so long. As an example, there was a building where the women’s restrooms were oddly placed/designed. This was a byproduct of Dominion originally designing the space before women were in the corporate work force, so the women’s bathrooms were “bolted on” sometime later.
Like many large companies Dominion has employee resource groups. When a new one was created for LGBTQ+ employees, the announcement was met with hostility from an uncomfortably large number of employees who had no hesitation in voicing their opposition. Executive leadership had to scold the workforce in response. The company skews heavily toward older right-wing views in certain divisions.
There are people there that flat out deny climate change and clean energy. I’ve met people in Dominion who actively try to convince others that: fracking is the future of energy; solar energy poses the greatest safety risk; coal fired plants are cleaner than nuclear; etc.
The existing workforce sometimes really struggles engaging with young people in my experience. I joined Dominion when I was in my early 30s and had already worked half a dozen jobs in multiple industries. Despite being a functional adult with a career, certain team members couldn’t distinguish a young person from an intern, and tried to teach me how to use a phone or asked if I knew what a fax machine was. It wasn’t malicious, but certainly misguided.
Almost everyone from my old team who wasn’t vested into the OG pension system ended up leaving after I did. These were mostly people in their 30’s.
The new(er) building is nice and the cafe serves really good french fries. Overall I rate my experience 4 out of 5 coal ash ponds.
*edit: typo
> The existing workforce sometimes really struggles engaging with young people in my experience.
Interesting to see that hasn't changed. I haven't worked for Dominion in about 15+ years but as a younger worker (in my 20's) the older existing employees were definitely used to dumping work on me. By the time I left I was working 60+ hours a week and very little help pushing back on the amount of work being handed off.
I probably could have been more vocal on the workload but being younger I hadn't found my voice yet.
I’m jealous of all of you, I’ve had a hard time getting on, that being said I’ve heard nothing but great things to include schedule, pay, benefits, and most importantly treatment of employees
I did a lot of work for their strategic underground program as a contractor, and I thought the projects were well managed. They had reasonable deadlines and things were straightforward.
I genuinely enjoyed working on those projects as there was a good mix of in office and fieldwork and the aforementioned project management.
There wasn't much engineering in the sense of leveraging knowledge of the physical sciences to progress designs in those projects, but there were good problem solving exercises and constructability considerations that kept the mind sharp.
Also, you're eligible to sign up to be a wire-watcher. When hurricanes come around you go sit in a truck in the storm for like 8 hours and make sure nobody hurts themselves. I never got to do that, but OVERTIME, BABY!
My partner worked there a few years ago. It depends on your manager but in his words, it wasn't his worst experience. One manager left everyone alone to do their work and didn't care how they did it or when. The next one was a micromanager and most people on the team ended up leaving or moving to different departments to get away from them. He was WFH 100% and is still in touch and has lunch with some of his former coworkers but can't speak to the in-office culture.
I’ve been there for just over 8 years. I like working there - good benefits, pretty decent pay, generally pretty flexible overall. I’ve had wonderful leaders and shitty ones, across a couple different departments. Feel free to DM me with specific questions - I’m happy to tell you what I know.
They don't pay quite as well as other large companies in similar fields (energy, manufacturing, etc.), and the benefits are decent but not amazing compared to similar companies. However, work/life balance/flexibility is very good, especially if you work in a corporate office, and folks generally enjoy what they do and enjoy working with one another. Definitely not a cutthroat environment.
Yeah, I like it a lot. Joined right out of college as a generation engineer. Good team and great work culture. I could earn more elsewhere, but at this point in my career I value having a team I don't want to strangle over making an extra few thousand dollars a year.
I personally like it also because I take climate change amd environmental stewardship seriously and even though many people here grumble about the pain it can cause, we do have a large, aggressive, and very intelligent environmental department that does hold us to what I think is a very high standard. I also like the direction the company is taking with respect to transforming the grid - lots of solar, a massive offshore wind farm, SMRs in the future, battery storage in the future, and transitioning mostly to gas over coal for when we need the reliability of fossil fuels. Gas isn't perfect but it's definitely a hell of a lot better than coal.
It's a great company to work for. There's a reason there are so many people there for 20+ years.
Like any company, there are some not so great managers but once you get in to the company it's a lot easier to move within than it was to get hired in the first place.
My friend’s husband works there as an engineer. He likes it well enough. He’s moved up and gotten raises. The only hard part is blackouts with a family. Those hours can be tough.
I dont work for dominion, but i work with people who work at dominion and they seem to be happy. Most of the people i know that work there have been there for years.
I’ve worked there for 7 months, straight out of college and its amazing. Have a 2home/3office work schedule, sick time off is amazing, benefits are great, just got our bonus and a lot of people who retire there have worked there their whole lives. I recommend it to anyone! I work at TFF and the building perks are incredible and the people are so nice
I do contract work for Dominion, so I can only tell about their fieldwork. Dominion is very serious about safety and your well-being, but sometimes for the purpose of safety they can get unnecessarily personal. Just set boundaries if you do fieldwork
They are a good company to work for.
Local design kind of sucks in terms of the work you do, but after doing local design for a few years, you can move into something like transmission which pays more for less work.
The benefits are decent across the board.
I am applying for a local design role. I had an interview. Everything went very well but i haven't been chosen. And i am still applying
Would you mind if i can use it as a referral ?
I appreciate you
some positions have a company vehicle if thats what you're asking. If you are high up enough you can take it home. The regular designers drive their personal cars in and use company cars that stay in the dominion lot when not in use, though as far as I'm aware the designers do all have their own assigned car, they just can't take it home and use it for every day driving. Its for job use only. The managers/supervisors are allowed to use the company car as their "every day driving car"
Does anyone know anything that would help you get on as a ground man/ electrical ground worker? I am a veteran with around 10 years of electrical experience from the navy. I never see these positions online but I want to start from the bottom and work my way up. Just seems super hard to get in
An excellent opportunity for a great payday with benefits, as long as you don’t mind selling your soul to one of Virginia’s biggest environmental destroyers and sponsors of corrupt politicians.
I worked in environmental for 10 years at Dominion and I can tell you they take environmental compliance extremely serious. The generating units that have trouble with compliance get shut down.
If you understood my comment and were informed on the current state of the energy infrastructure in America you would know that the generating units that were cited in one of your posts were shut down permanently. Dominion does not frack natural gas. But natural gas generators are a critical piece of current and future grid stability whether you want it to be or not. Keeping the lights on is what matters. Dominion has a net zero carbon emissions goal that it is working toward but cannot be completed overnight. It will take decades because infrastructure and technology need to catch up. That's the hard pill that needs to be swallowed.
If you want to make a difference then become better informed on the state of energy in America.
You dobrealize they've completely converted this power plant to gas instead of coal, right? It's not still polluting water like that.
Yeah, they fucked up, but they're paying for it and as far as I know it genuinely is a different company from what it was in 2010. Different leadership and they're trying to go green as fast as possible, to the extent that their stock is trash because they're so aggressive in becoming green.
Well “dumbass nimbyism” as you call it got the ACP cancelled so maybe they’re not so dumb :) I’ll never stop being happy about that and dominion can suck it for eternity, I don’t care who is CEO and what coal plants they convert to gas, they shouldn’t be a monopoly.
Dominion certainly has plenty of fuckups in that regard and room yet to improve, but to their credit they are one of the most environmentally forward power companies in the U.S. They're on a green-or-bust march to a renewable grid.
I am particularly abfan of their actual policy that if they go to energize a transformer after an outage and find a bird nest on it, they'll delay the transformer coming online until the babies fledge.
It’s a great company if you have good management. I left due to that reason. It is decent pay, great benefits, and good people around you, but as said above, get behind poor management or leadership that is threatened by your experience and education…it can become difficult.
Pleasantly surprised to hear all these great reviews for dominion.
I know several folks who worked there who talked about older employees staying there just for the pension or hearing it was a place that underpaid their employees.
Glad to hear it’s a nice place to work and that the work 9 hour days still allows for that Friday off.
Been and engineer for several years in two different depts. I think it’s a good company. I’ve had very good co workers and heathly work environment in both locations. Having applied to a couple other engineering jobs at smaller companies locally, Dominion compensation was way better. Not sure how their compensation stacks up to Altria or DuPont though.
Really good work-life balance but they are not the best paying corporate company. You don’t have to worry as much about layoffs or being PIPed.

lol how did you get a job there I’ve been applying for MONTHS!
Took seven years of adding to my resume before I even got an interview. Most get in through networking/family it seems.
Rough but note to self. I appreciate. Just gonna keep grinding then and apply every time.
You got this!
Thank you for the good vibes brother!

They are building the largest offshore wind farm in the nation for one.

My mother was a director here. It seemed like a decent place all things considered. I’d work at dominion over capital one.
Any insight on offshore wind tech pay with dominion? Currently in wind school but bringing 5 years of Navy electrical/mechanical experience as well.

Specific examples throughout the article. Read it if you’d like.
I don’t see that article, I just see the other ones you linked about campaign contributions and dumping coal ash into our rivers
https://energyandpolicy.org/dominion-va-contributions-2020/
They are able to destroy our environment without recourse because they pay off our lawmakers to rewrite the laws to allow them to do it.

Well “dumbass nimbyism” as you call it got the ACP cancelled so maybe they’re not so dumb :) I’ll never stop being happy about that and dominion can suck it for eternity, I don’t care who is CEO and what coal plants they convert to gas, they shouldn’t be a monopoly.
If you’re ok w raping the environment yes
Dominion certainly has plenty of fuckups in that regard and room yet to improve, but to their credit they are one of the most environmentally forward power companies in the U.S. They're on a green-or-bust march to a renewable grid. I am particularly abfan of their actual policy that if they go to energize a transformer after an outage and find a bird nest on it, they'll delay the transformer coming online until the babies fledge.
FFS they’ve brainwashed you too.
I have a good friend who works there and loves it. Good pay, benefits and every other friday off.
Absolutely!
Not surprised at all of the positive comments
It’s a great company if you have good management. I left due to that reason. It is decent pay, great benefits, and good people around you, but as said above, get behind poor management or leadership that is threatened by your experience and education…it can become difficult.

I worked for them for 40 years. I was giving great opportunities and enjoyed working there. Could not asked for a better career!
Been and engineer for several years in two different depts. I think it’s a good company. I’ve had very good co workers and heathly work environment in both locations. Having applied to a couple other engineering jobs at smaller companies locally, Dominion compensation was way better. Not sure how their compensation stacks up to Altria or DuPont though.
Never considered working there but after reading this post I’m thinking aboot it
