De Beers Employee Review

Not a terrible place to work

Heavy equipment technician (Current Employee) - Northwest Territories - 30 May 2023

Don’t mind it here, the people you work with are great. It’s the little things here. Constantly getting sick, not great food, dorms are 3/10 and parts for equipment will drive you up the wall. Cause there isn’t much. Tooling is what you make of it. High turn over rate in the shop. Management booted Sms out and they brought in mader and 70-80% of them don’t give a careThe mentality here is save a penny by spending a dollar. So take that as you will.

Stressful work culture

HEAVY EQUIPMENT TECHNICIAN (Current Employee) - Northwest Territories - 18 November 2022

if you want to work for a company that has a superintendent whose attitude is his way or the high way, who has put unqualified people into leadership positions because they are friends or, yes, men have no tools to repair anything spend hours trying to find basics hand tools then this is the place for you

Productive place to work

Heavy Equipment Operator (Current Employee) - Attawapiskat, ON Victor Mine - 4 January 2018

I enjoyed working for this company very much. Accommodations, food, everything was excellent. This is where I learned the importance of safety issues related to equipment and the mining industry. Management was very helpful in all areas. The hardest part may have been the -45 climate. The most enjoyable part would have been operating various pieces of equipment as well as co workers.
