Would anyone know of a good place to find information on how large a system administrator/ network engineering department should be? The general rule of thumb I've heard is 1 system administrator/network engineer for every 250 users. Is this generally true in practice?
That depends... ...would a lawyer say. ;-) But it's true, that depends on the size of your network, on the number of platforms your are running a.s.f. For a single platform (users all on a 'cloned' desktop, servers are similar) you get the 1/250 and can get beyond that for large networks. But you have to add 'heads' for additional platforms.
