Pros
- Wide variety of customers with different infrastructure means you'll get great exposure to different technologies - Learning new technologies/tools is encouraged and dogsbody are willing to pay for certifications/courses - No blame culture and pleasant work environment - Opportunities for hybrid and remote working
Cons

Cons
* If you want every employee benefit under the sun then this isn't the place to work. * It is a small company - if you want to progress up a career ladder this may not be the place for you.

Pros
Great place to learn - working with a variety of customers with different existing systems and goals leads to getting hands on with a lot of different software Varied work, often jumping between outages or support requests which need addressing in a timely fashion and scheduled longer term projects Good internal and external communication both when working remotely and in the office
Cons
Relatively small company I'm not a fan of the time tracking required for the job

Pros
* The ability to progress through your career whether you're just starting out as an apprentice or you're a Linux whizz. * Small company means more focused work. You get a real family feel here. * Opportunities to WFH or adjust work schedules.
Cons
* Don't expect to be top of the ranks early on. Trust needs to be proven. * If you enjoy being around lots of people in a fast place area, here isn't for you.

Pros
Brilliant opportunities for staff. Dogsbody Technology run an apprenticeship program which has so far gone on to hire all staff after completing their apprenticeship. Staff are given a training budget and encouraged to "find their passion".
Cons
Dogsbody Technology is a small company at the end of the day so large salaries for small roles isn't going to happen I'm afraid.
