Pros
IT jobs pay reasonably well. It's possible to move between departments, and the training is good. In IT, it's easy to get time off when you need it.
Cons
Most IT managers think of lower-level staff as interchangeable and disposable parts, not people. The higher up the ladder you go, the worse it gets. Senior management has established a culture of fear in many IT departments. Progressive used to encourage new ideas - no longer. It also used to allow people to learn from their mistakes - no longer.
