    I have been internal IT for four years after a long time at MSPs, mostly on-site but sometimes off.
    Overall, yes, my career progressed slower. But I was able to work for client companies in a wide variety of sectors, and that helped me understand what sector I wanted to be in, so, swings & roundabouts.

      Thanks for sharing your experience. Did you find internal better as far as type of work?

      I know my msp really just does the same sort of thing day in, day out.

        Pretty similar in terms of repetitiveness.
        Better in that I’m involved in a couple of longer term projects like running a Community of Practice and developing some internal standards for the org.
        Work, eh.
