What is the best part of working at the company?
The only good thing about Summit is the pay. One day people are there and the next they are gone. They are a woke corporation who see`s employees as a number easily replaced by guile and money.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
You can trust no one , they have access to your vehicle to switch out geotabs and they are just not a good company. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They claim to be "family " oriented but it is the furthest from the truth. You have people to BS with but anything serious you talk to people outside of the company ! TRUST NO ONE !!

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Morning meeting , cup of coffee , check W/O's head out to do my daily routine and call outs and emergency repairs.

I enjoyed the challenge of working in the Natural Gas Industry. It was a well paying job with a lot of independance. You knew what had to be done and you planned your day accordingly. No one lorded over you and as long as you accomplished your goals and helped the companies reach their goals you were well rewarded. The tools, cloths and the things you needed to accomplish your work were all provided by the companies.

Early on in the Natural Gas business I worked in District, and I probably enjoyed it the most. The company was small but we were more like family. You loose a lot of that when a company is managed by an outside corporation and the interaction becomes less personal.

Challenge to keep over 200 oil lact units operational and functioning properly. 
I learned more about operating crude oil and salt water pipline  in a short period of time.
Local management is very knowledgable about problems associated with daily operation of pipelines but upper management is not so knowledgable. 

Coworkers worked very hard to keep pipelines operational on a daily basis
The hardest part of our job is the long hours and drive time.  It takes very much time to complete our daily job requirements
The most enjoyable part of my job has been to be able to build a pipline and make it work efficiently.

The culture is business yet casual.  Coworkers are friendly and very helpful.  It's a Team atmosphere.  Daily tasks can be stressful as they are usually time, and detail sensitive.

The Teams usually share important celebrations by including everyone. Everyone is known by name no matter the position they hold which makes for a more personal work experience.

The company is growing quickly.  As a result policy, procedural and practice changes take place often.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The 4-day work schedule is a blessing in disguise.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When you need things to do your job you don't get them

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Just another oilfield company. Those of you that have worked in the oil field know what I'm saying

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Keeping things running and repairing things that need it. As well as helping out your fellow coworkers and gleaning information from them

Summit expects you to work and make summit your life, you will be required to be on call and answer your phone 24 hours a day 7 days a week, even though some do not and you do you are penalized by taking the call our while others get drunk and cant cover. No room for advancement because company and managers would rather hire there friends from outside the company. Hr has no involvement in the hiring so Managers hire who they want.

We own multiple companies and have monthly operating and expense meetings with the employees out in the field. Then we have quarterly  meetings where we have tight deadlines where we have footnotes/MDNA notes that have to be turned in on a very short deadline.

This company has so much potential to be a great place to work but upper management makes it unbearable to work there. Their condescending, “you are easily replaceable” attitudes make for a negative environment resulting in extremely high turnover and constant turmoil. Would not recommend this company in its current state.

Gas control is a great job to have and allowed me to balance my work/home life. The co-workers were awesome because many of them have worked together for many years. The company has a problem with management thought. They put inadequate people in management positions which led to many of the employers seeking other employment. 

There are many days where you are the only representative on site and must oversee 3rd party work being performed near or on the companies assets. Line locating is typically a very manageable and easy task to perform which requires walking long swaths of land.
