Better in the long run?

by timehawk . Updated 24 years, 2 months ago

I have a dilema about the coming work experience for my college program. I live in winnipeg and the IT job market is flooded right now.

My friend from college that droped out to tend to his family’s business wants to get computerized. They own four seperate company’s on a 2-3 acre lot. He wants me to come in and be the computer guy. This would allow me to be the Systems Analyst/DBA/Network Admin/Application Developer/Programmer and what not. I can easily see the experience I could getout of this job that I would never gain working in a single titled job at many of the other companies in the city. Of course the pay would not be as great.
He has many other things to do, but he is from the same program as me and will more than help me to get things going.

What should I do? Work for less but possibly gain a broad and extensive experience base or work for more and gain good experience with a certain area?

Regards,
