Pros

Job started out to be a great job, they even paid for relocation. Salary was very nice, most made in this career. Offered year-end bonuses. Benefits package was great, vacation days, etc.

Cons

Worked 10-12 hour days, evenings, and on-call for weekends which meant little time with family. Management had expectations for unattainable results. Like my job performance reviews were evaluated on tasks I had no control over, employees doing their jobs but those employees didn't report to me and I wasn't their boss. Also, sales or contracts meeting expectations, but I had nothing to do with sales/contracts.

Pros

Had a lot of flexibility with management in choosing and outlining the projects I wanted to work on

Cons

A lot of the more interesting IT work was reserved for a few set of teams, felt insular in that regard
