My favorite Summit value is the community aspect. Since working here, I have seen how everyone seems to get along well and work well together. Everyone has a great attitude and is always very willing to help each other out.
Field Geologist
I’ve always appreciated the supportive environment here at Summit. I studied history in college and had virtually no experience when I started here as a lab technician. To me, Summit has always felt like a place where questions are welcomed. I don’t think I’d be where I am today without that support system.
