Very good pay- average pay is almost 90K a year
Versatility- IT affects many industries, so if you don’t enjoy working in one industry, it is easy to transfer to another
Clear path and ability to move up- start as support/development and move up to manager, enterprise architect, and chief information officer
Always opportunities to learn and grow, and this is often encouraged in the workplace

Stressful- a lot of IT fields require support to fix broken technology or working long hours to meet deadlines
Long Hours, especially if you have to perform some kind of update; a lot of tasks will need you to work overtime in order to complete them before a deadline
Giving free technology advice about things that may not be related to your field other than the fact that the concerns are about technology
Sometimes IT workers can be underappreciated; they are not acknowledged too much unless something goes wrong
