Our IT dept is about 45 or so strong and their work is spread among their groups. I've brought up hiring additional help and we will be back filling my old coworkers role soon. That person will be my peer, and I'll be the Senior so they will report to me. Even with him, the work load is still too much. We've already accounted for all the additional head count possible for this year, so I'll have to wait for additional help.
