I would probably suggest a smaller company though where you can wear many hats. I personally feel its a good idea to develop a baseline understanding of workstation support, server support, and networking support before you deep dive into a pure network engineer. Being somewhat fluent in the other areas will make you more valuable in the long run at larger organizations where those areas are separated into departments.
